Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The U.S. Supreme Court has original jurisdiction over certain types of cases, but most of its decisions are generally appeals from the circuit court alleging legal error committed by the circuit court and are heard by all (usually 9) justices of the court. Supreme Court decisions are written by one judge, with other judges either joining in the opinion if they concur, or dissenting if they do not. U.S. Supreme Court decisions apply to all courts in the country.
