Supreme Court

Read a random definition: signatorius anulus

A quick definition of Supreme Court:

Supreme Court: The highest court in a place, like the United States or California. It's the most important court and makes big decisions that affect everyone. Sometimes there are other courts with "Supreme Court" in their name, but they're not as important as the real Supreme Court.

A more thorough explanation:

Supreme Court

The Supreme Court is the highest court in a jurisdiction. For example, the Supreme Court of the United States is the highest court in the country. It is responsible for interpreting the Constitution and making decisions on important legal issues. In some jurisdictions, there may be a lower court called the Supreme Court, but this is just a name and does not indicate any higher appellate power. For example, the Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York is a lower court in the state's judicial system.

One example of the Supreme Court is the United States Supreme Court. This court has the final say on legal issues in the country and its decisions are binding on all lower courts. Another example is the Supreme Court of California, which is the highest court in the state. It hears appeals from lower courts and has the power to interpret state law.

The Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York is an example of a lower court that is called the Supreme Court. Despite its name, it is not the highest court in the state and its decisions can be appealed to higher courts.

These examples illustrate the definition of the Supreme Court as the highest court in a jurisdiction. They also show that in some jurisdictions, there may be a lower court called the Supreme Court, but this does not indicate any higher appellate power.

@babycat: Yes, and those things are fine, but I think it is disingenous to call someone's views black and white they are grounded in different reasoning. I promise you, I have thought every thing I believe out and there's a great many issues I don't have a view on because I don't have the experience or knowledge to have a belief on. This is the problem with our political dialogue today—we go straight to making assumptions about an individual or their motivations.

I genuinely don’t think I called your views black and white and you may be thinking of someone else. I said something a while ago about not taking hardline views on gender relations at a young age because experience may shift these views but that was a different thing. Also not intended to be political! I was scared of relationships and intimacy when I was younger and that for sure affected the way I perceived gender relations

@babycat: Ok, that's fair and I get where you're coming from, but I also don't think I've taken a hardline view on what you're referring to. I'm flexible on most issues, with a few exceptions. And, I also don't think with regard to political issues, at least, saying I'm a couple of years younger than you means my opinion is less informed.

@texaslawhopefully: I didn’t say that you did! I was just saying it’s good not to based on my personal experience. Also I never cast any aspersions about your political views and didn’t intend to do so
