Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bess must appeal to a higher court than the bankruptcy court, which is a federal court. The next highest court in the federal system is the federal district court. Therefore, Bess must appeal to a federal district court. The other options, county court and state court, are lower courts in the hierarchy and do not have jurisdiction over federal bankruptcy cases. The U.S. Supreme Court is also a higher court, but it generally only hears cases on appeal from lower federal courts if they involve a significant legal or constitutional issue.
