A decision of the U.S. Supreme Court that is based on an interpretation of a provision of the U.S. Constitution is binding on both state courts and lower federal courts. This is because the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land and all other laws and decisions must conform to it. This is known as the doctrine of judicial review.
