Superior Court
The Superior Court is a state-level court that typically handles serious criminal cases, civil disputes, and appeals from lower courts. It serves as an important part of the judicial system, ensuring that laws are applied fairly and justly. Each state has its own Superior Court system, which may vary in structure and jurisdiction.
In many states, the Superior Court is the trial court of general jurisdiction, meaning it can hear a wide range of cases. This includes family law matters, such as divorce and custody, as well as significant civil cases involving large sums of money.
