Virginia Court System
The Virginia Court System is structured into several levels, including District Courts, Circuit Courts, Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court of Virginia. Each level has specific responsibilities, with District Courts handling minor civil and criminal cases, while Circuit Courts deal with more serious matters and appeals from District Courts.
The Supreme Court of Virginia is the highest court in the state, overseeing the judicial system and ensuring laws are interpreted correctly. The Court of Appeals serves as an intermediate appellate court, reviewing decisions from the lower courts to ensure fairness and adherence to the law.
