Another question that I was wondering about U.S. court hears which cases


1. civil cases


2.criminal cases


3.no cases that generated by the Internal Revenue service


4.All of theseFederal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over all of the following types of cases except cases involving?
C. Citizens of different states. There's concurrent jurisdiction with the states on that type of case.





The second half of your question is indecipherable.Federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over all of the following types of cases except cases involving?
Federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over (C), citizens of different states, but only IF a party asserts it. It is important to remember that your state's trial court is the only court of general jurisdiction that can hear any type of case. Suits between citizens of different states can be removed to federal court, but they can be filed and heard in state court also. A right to federal jurisdiction is not the same as mandatory federal jurisdiction.


In answer to the second part of your question, which is understandable to me, is that your state's trial courts can hear all cases you describe. Yes, there is a court devoted only to tax cases, but that court does not have exclusive jurisdiction. Tax cases can by heard by state courts. Criminal tax charges are frequently heard by state courts. Civil and criminal cases go to your state court. Some may be removed to fed'l court because of diversity jurisdiction or federal crimes, but removal is optional. In short, federal courts do not have exclusive jurisdiction in any of the choices you listed in your question. They have concurrent jurisdiction with the state court. The only court of general jurisdiction is your state trial court--called District Court in my state, or Superior Court, or Court of Common Pleas or Supreme Court (in NY) and probably a few other names.
-C- is correct..





Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. Article III, 搂2 of U.S. Constitution lists nine categories of federal jurisdiction. You must fall into one of the categories for federal court to hear the case.
