Congress and the Judiciary Act of 1789<span>

When the First Congress turned to the organization of the judicial branch, much of the debate centered on whether to establish lower federal courts or to rely on existing state courts to exercise federal jurisdiction. Advocates of a strong central government thought a national system of federal courts was an essential requirement for energetic government. Other members of Congress, recalling the colonial experience under British rule, thought that justice was best served by courts tied to local communities. Those who were suspicious of the concentration of national power wanted to grant state courts authority to hear all cases involving federal law or to limit local federal courts to admiralty and maritime law. The judiciary act approved in September 1789 established a federal court system with broad jurisdiction, but the act reserved a significant role for state courts and guaranteed that the diversity of legal traditions throughout the country would be recognized in the local federal courts.

The Judiciary Act of 1789 established three types of federal courts. The Supreme Court, with a chief justice and five associate justices, would meet twice a year in the nation’s capital and hear appeals from lower federal courts and from the state supreme courts. The Supreme Court would also exercise the limited original jurisdiction defined by the Constitution. In each state and in Kentucky and Maine (then parts of other states), a district court with a single judge would have exclusive jurisdiction to hear cases involving admiralty and maritime law and conduct trials of minor federal crimes. The district courts shared with the state courts jurisdiction over small suits brought by the United States.

The most important federal cases would be initiated in the third type of court, called circuit courts, which would convene in the same judicial districts in which the district courts met. The circuit courts had no judges of their own, but were served by two Supreme Court justices and the local district judge. (Congress soon revised the law to require only one justice on each circuit court.) Congress grouped the judicial districts into regional circuits for the purpose of assigning justices to serve on the circuit courts within that region. The circuit courts would hear some appeals from the district courts, but they were primarily trial courts. The circuit courts had exclusive jurisdiction over serious federal crimes and shared with the state courts jurisdiction over suits involving disputes above a certain monetary value, suits involving the U.S. government, and suits between citizens of different states.

Congress protected distinctive state legal traditions by drawing the judicial districts to coincide with state boundaries and by providing for the use of the respective state’s rules for most district and circuit court proceedings and for the selection of federal juries. Perhaps most important for protection of regional legal cultures, the assignment of “circuit riding” duties for Supreme Court justices ensured that the judges on the nation’s highest court would learn about local legal procedures and would interact with citizens at the point where cases entered the federal judicial system. The Judiciary Act also promoted a local orientation of the lower courts by requiring district judges to live in the district where they served. In response to widespread concerns that defendants in federal trials would be forced to appear in distant courts, the Judiciary Act required civil trials to be held in the district in which a defendant was served with a writ and trials involving the death penalty to be held in the county where the crime occurred.

Answer:

the cost of a post secondary degree is worth it.

Explanation:

The correct answer is "the cost of a post secondary degree is worth it". This is because the statement implies that having this kind of degree is better than having a secondary degree.

Here are the reasons why the other answers are not correct:

  • "the cost of a post secondary degree should be avoided": this is false, as the statement on the question says that in the long term it is better to have a post secondary degree.
  • "you should not be concerned about the amount of debt you go into to pay for it": the statement provided discusses that it is better to have post secondary degree than not habing it. It does not address being concerned about its cost. It is always recommended to understand how you are going to pay for a degree, so you can plan for which kind of job you will need to have after finishing the degree as well as how much money you need to earn to have good quality of life.
  • "the more money you pay for the degree guarantees a higher salary": the statement does not talk about the ratio between salary and cost of a degree.

1. Discuss the history of culture bias and how the results may have shaped how
Allushta [10]

Answer and Explanation:

1. Cultural prejudice was greatly strengthened during European colonialism, where European nations began to invade other nations and view them with inferiority, treating them as belonging to savage people, without culture and with brutality. This happened, mainly among Asian, African and indigenous peoples. This prejudice was intensified when the strengthening of the culture of the USA, who saw themselves as superiors as peoples such as Latinos, Blacks, Asians, Indians and anyone else who did not present customs admired by Americans. This type of prejudice persists today, but it needs to be combated, since all cultures are important, rich and beautiful.

2. Although tests and IQ are not completely impartial, they are important for measuring a generalized intelligence factor, which can present levels of people's mental and cognitive quality. It is also important to propose comparative concepts of intelligence capable of providing better activities for specific groups of individuals.
