Welcome to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois Article III of the Constitution calls for a Supreme Court and whatever other federal courts Congress thinks are necessary. For the most part, federal courts only hear cases in which the United States is a party, cases involving violations of the Constitution or federal laws, and in some special kinds of cases, such as bankruptcy cases and cases concerning incidents at sea. In addition, federal courts hear cases based on state laws that involve parties from different states. The federal courts play a significant role in shaping this country's future by resolving disputes and protecting the rights of its citizens. Explore tomorrow by looking at the future of the federal court. It doesn't just belong to yesterday, but it is a vital part of the next century. Thanks for taking the time to explore our web site.

HOW THE U.S. COURT SYSTEM FUNCTIONS By Toni M. Fine The U.S. Constitution establishes a system of federalism under which the federal government is granted limited authority, with all remaining authority left to the states. This model of shared powers defines the relationship between the federal and state courts. In this overview of the various levels of the U.S. courts, Toni M. Fine, associate director of the Global Law School Program at New York University Law School, explains how the court system functions. It is something of a myth to speak about a single U.S. court system because the U.S. judicial system is in reality composed of multiple autonomous courts. There is the federal court system, an integrated system divided into numerous geographic units and various levels of hierarchy; in addition, each state has its own court system with a system of local courts that operate within the state. Under this dual federal/state court structure, the U.S. Supreme Court is the final arbiter of federal law, while the highest court of each state (usually called supreme courts) has the ultimate authority to interpret matters of the law of its state. When federal constitutional or statutory matters are involved, the federal courts have the power to decide whether the state law violates federal law. The functioning of these systems is complicated by the fact that there are multiple sources of law, and courts of one system are often called upon to interpret and apply the laws of another jurisdiction. In addition, more than one court may have sovereignty to hear a particular case.

An Overview of Michigan's District Courts In 1969 Michigan Law consolidated almost all of the state's Municipal Courts into a co-ordinated system of Districts where full-time judges, elected by the citizens, could serve the local legal needs of their communities as "courts-of- record." There are l00 District Courts in Michigan. Their 265 District Judges handle hundreds of thousands of traffic, criminal, and civil cases annually. JURISDICTION The Court has exclusive jurisdiction of : (1) Jury and non-jury adjudication of all civil litigation up to $25,000.00 (Civil cases are non-criminal disputesthey are all cases where no one is going to jail.) District Courts also may handle cases over $25,000 where a Circuit Judge has decided that the "probable value" is under that amount, but the judge or jury has no limitation in those cases as to what the final judgment amount may be. In many counties, District Judges hear some Circuit Court cases if time allows on the District Court docket and if the Circuit Judge needs assistance. (2) Jury and non-jury trials of all criminal misdemeanors under State law or local ordinances. (that's where punishment may not exceed one year in jail)
