The Supreme Court

 The in-class video that we watched about the Supreme Court was very engaging and had some interesting facts that I never knew about the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court was founded in 1789 by Article 3 of the US Constitution with deliberation and decision making in quiet in mind. . When the Supreme Court was created the Constitution granted the Supreme Court unlimited administration over all laws especially the cases that were broken within the laws of the Constitution.  

    

    The role of the Supreme Court is to interpret the Constitution and to deem current action constitutional or unconstitutional. It is also the final judge in all cases involving the laws of Congress and the highest law. (national supremacy) The original jurisdiction of a court is the power to hear a case for the first time. Appellate jurisdiction Is the power of the court to review decisions and change outcomes of Visions of lower courts. A state supreme court is the ultimate judicial tribunal in the court system of a particular state.


 

    








    There were some ideas outside of the basic info that I found to be intriguing. It is a very stressful job to be a Supreme Court justice. One of the supreme court justices said the job can be very overwhelming for the first 3 years. When you forget you're there then you start doing your work very properly. It completely makes sense due to all of the cases they have to widdle down to find the best cause, and to figure out the right verdict. Also, another issue that can be stressful for justices is arguing with 9 rather than 3 individuals due to the fact that there could be 3 ongoing different conversations at the same time. One thing that I greatly admired was how proper the Supreme Court is when they talked about how each justice has to shake other justices' hands, to not hold grudges on each other.
