Earle is a state court judge in a small town in Kansas. The mayor is outraged by some of Earle's rulings. Earle does not like local politics so he has decided he would rather be a judge in a federal court. He thinks this may be difficult because Kansas only has one U. S. District Court. Assuming Earle becomes a judge for the U. S. District Court for the District of Kansas, what will be the geographical jurisdiction for his court?
A) Any cases arising in the state of Kansas
B) Only cases in which the U. S. government or any of its agencies are parties
C) Only federal case based on event occurring within 150 miles of the U. S. District Courthouse in Topeka, Kansas
D) All federal crimes committed in the state of Kansas
