How do I determine whether each case is a function of the federal or state court system. Determine whether or not each case falls under federal or state jurisdiction. Identify and explain the differences between the jurisdiction and original venue, for each case.... this is the question on 5 cases I have, I do not expect the work to be done, I just want someone to ''simplify'' these steps. How can I decipher what is what?How do I determine whether each case is a function of the federal or state court system. Determine whether or?
If it's criminal law, the answer is simple. If among the alleged crimes is the violation of a federal statute it is heard in federal court.
If it's civil, the question is more complicated. If there is a federal law question or diversity jurisdiction it may, but need not be, heard in federal court.
If the case contains neither federal question nor diversity jurisdiction, it must be heard in state court.
