Can you explain appellate jurisdiction a little more to me? I don't quite understand the difference between appellate jurisdiction and original jurisdiction.
original = first court to hear a case. so this court rules on the facts of the case, often issues a verdict like guilty/not guilty if it's a criminal case. appellate = after the case has already been ruled on in a lower court, an appellate court hears APPEALS, which are NOT based on the facts of the case, but rather focus on legal/constitutional issues. Were your rights violated in some way? Was the trial fair? stuff like that
Hey, so I knew that it's in the Constitution but that didn't feel like that would be a very good answer lol. So I looked it up. Article 3, Section 2, 2nd paragraph. "the Supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as Congress shall make."
@@CareyLaManna I suppose if the Democrats took both houses in the upcoming election, they could use this as a check on the power of the court. It seems like this check has rarely been used and has definitely not been abused.
@@brettdobson3122 Yeah I don't have a ton of examples. It happened during the civil war, check out Ex Parte McCardle for a case where the Court ruled that Congress can strip it of jurisdiction. I believe those cases involved freedom of the press and habeas corpus. But yes, that would be an alternative to court stacking for Democrats to consider.
I literally love your videos, thank you so much

So they just can take jurisdiction away on an issue like abortion perhaps?

Mispronouncing certiorari.
