Which court is the highest appellate court in the United States?

  1. District Court.

  2. Supreme Court.

  3. Circuit Court.

  4. Superior Court.

The correct answer is: Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court is the highest appellate court in the United States. This means that it has the final say on appeals for cases from lower courts, including the District Court, Circuit Court, and Superior Court. The District Court is the trial court, meaning it is the first level where a case is heard and decided. The Circuit Court is the intermediate appellate court between the District Court and the Supreme Court. The Superior Court is a state court and does not fall under the jurisdiction of the federal Supreme Court. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
