ReplyDeleteThe judicial branch of government interprets the laws. It includes the U.S. supreme court. There are 5 different types of courts in the judicial branch. They all have different levels of power. Some are for small crimes and some are for larger crimes.

ReplyDeleteThe judicial branch is to make sure laws are constitutional , & then interprets them. In the judicial branch their is the court system is which the Supreme Court & justices are located. In the Judicial brach there is the fedral(national) courts and also there is the state level courts. there is the juvenile & family court, general court, district courts, circuit court of appeals , & supreme court. these are listed lowest to highest on the STATE level. Then we have different crimes which differentiate between small cases such as misdameanors where you are usually in jail for less than one year, for commiting a small crime to felanies which are more than a year, for worse cases.
The judicial branch interprets the laws to make sure they need to be written. The court system is which the supreme court and justices are located. There is national and state levels in the judicial branch. They are the Disrtict Courts, the Circuit Courts, the court of appeals, and the supreme court.

ReplyDeleteThe judicial branch's job is to interpret the laws and see if they are constitutional. The judicial branch is a dual system which includes the federal courts which are national courts and the state courts. Each part of the courts have their own jurisdiction like how the Court of Appeals has appellate jurisdiction.

ReplyDeleteThe Judicial Branch is a dual court system which is made of state and national governments. It job is to interpret laws and to make sure laws are in check with Constitution. We need them in our government so that our rights are protected and that we are treated fairly.

The judicial branch interprets the laws. The judicial branch also includes the U.S. Supreme Court. This branch is a dual system that includes the federal and state powers. We need the judicial branch in government in order for laws to be reviewed to make sure that they are constitutional. We also need this branch in government to be sure that everyone is treated fairly and all laws are fair.

The Judicial Branch is a very important branch of the United States government. This branch interprets laws. They consist of the Supreme Court. There are three different kinds of courts. The lowest level of courts are the district courts. Next are the court if appeals and last is the Supreme Court. The supreme court has justices. Justices are judges.We need the Judicial Branch because of checks and balances. Also, they make sure laws are constitutional.:)
