One of the main factors which contributed to the Stock Market Crash in 1929, when the very loose regulations related to margin orders.

In financial terms, margin in an instrument which consists on depositing a collateral with a counterparty (generally the broker) to cover some of the credit risk that the depositor places to that counterparty.

In the 1920s, the mandatory requirements regarding margins were not very strict, and brokers asked investors to put in a small fraction of their own money. Leverage rates  which measure the proportion of debt, reached 90% with a high frequency.  Nowadays, the Federal Reserve has established the limit of 50%.

Back in 1929, when the stock market started to contract, many investors received margin calls. They had to hand in more money to their brokers, because the amounts required before were not enough and if not, their shares would be sold. Many people did not have the extra margin amounts required, their shares were sold and the market declined further. This generated more margin calls and more declines. This is why margin calls were one of the causes which triggered the Stock Market Crisis and, in turn, the Great Depression in 1929.

1. It depends on the issue at hand. It is likely going to be in federal district court as Federal District Courts are most often the court of original jurisdiction. A is likely the right answer.

2. Both are appellate courts, so D is correct. The Supreme Court and the Appellate Courts are both, most of the time, sitting in a review capacity. SO, they are reviewing the lower court's ruling for errors.

3. A, C, D.

C is incorrect as magistrate judges do not hear cases on appeal

5. C is correct as the President nominates Judges and the Senate provides advise and consent. The majority vote rule is new as of the last decade.

6. B and D are correct

7. A is correct. The Supreme Court is the highest appeals court in the land and their job is to hear and rule on cases.

8. C is the correct answer
