Problem
Research the court system for the state of California or any state you're interested or live in.
Do a written report stating the following:
A. How many levels of courts are there? If possible, provide a diagram. What titles are used for each level? Is there a separate set of courts to handle appeals in criminal cases?
B. If a person is arrested for a felony (state law) committed in your city: name, the court where the charges will be filed; name the court where the trial will be held.
C. Which state appellate court covers the city where you live?
D. If the FBI makes an arrest for a federal crime that was committed in your city, which U.S. District Court will handle the case? Which circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals?
