Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the Constitution, the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction over cases affecting ambassadors, ministers, and consuls or when a state is a party. This means that if a case involves one of these types of parties or if it involves a dispute between two or more states, it can be brought directly to the Supreme Court without first going through lower courts. The Court does not have original jurisdiction over all civil cases or federal appellate cases, as stated in options B and D. Option A is incorrect because appeals from state courts must go through the lower federal courts before they can be appealed to the Supreme Court.
