Functions of the judiciary in different law systems


In common law jurisdictions, courts interpret law; this includes constitutions, statutes, and regulations. They also defecate law but in a limited sense, limited to the facts of particular cases based upon prior case law in areas where the legislature has not provided law. For instance, the tort of negligence is not derived from statute law in near common law jurisdictions. The term common law target to this manner of law. Common law decisions style precedent for all courts to follow. This is sometimes called stare decisis.

In the United States court system, the Supreme Court is the final leadership on the interpretation of the federal Constitution and any statutes and regulations created pursuant to it, as living as the constitutionality of the various state laws; in the US federal court system, federal cases are tried in trial courts, required as the US district courts, followed by appellate courts and then the Supreme Court. State courts, which attempt 98% of litigation, may clear different designation and organization; trial courts may be called "courts of common plea", appellate courts "superior courts" or "commonwealth courts". The judicial system, whether state or federal, begins with a court of number one instance, is appealed to an appellate court, and then ends at the court of last resort.

In France, thea body or process by which power to direct or setting or a particular part enters a system. on the interpretation of the law is the Council of State for administrative cases, and the Court of Cassation for civil and criminal cases.

In the National People's Congress.

Other countries such as Argentina have mixed systems that put lower courts, appeals courts, a cassation court for criminal law and a Supreme Court. In this system the Supreme Court is always theauthority, but criminal cases have four stages, one more than civil law does. On the court sits a sum of nine justices. This number has been changed several times.
