The judicial branch of the U.S. federal government is represented in all 50 states. State courts deal with cases such as divorce, probate, real estate, and criminal cases. Each state has its own hierarchy of courts ending in a state supreme court for appeals. Each state also has federal courts that address issues dealing with the U.S. Constitution, bankruptcies, treaties, and so forth. Ninety-four federal districts are grouped into 12 circuit courts, also known as appellate courts. Each state has at least one federal district court. Cases heard in district courts feed into the appellate courts if challenged.

Students researching case law typically begin with LexisNexis.
