AP US Government
Unit 2 – Branches of Government
Topic 2.8
How has federal jurisdiction remained broad despite various challenges over time?
Due to pressure from international courts wanting more cases resolved at domestic level first.
As Supreme Court Justices are appointed for lifetime terms giving them unlimited power scope across states' legal matters too.
Due to increasing number of state courts handling minor offenses only.
Because the Constitution grants federal courts authority over a wide range of matters.
