JUDICIAL BRANCH "Justice is the crowning glory of the virtues." - Cicero Pennsylvania's unified judicial system means that every court in the Commonwealth is under the supervision of the state Supreme Court. The judicial system may be thought of as a pyramid, with the Supreme Court at the apex. Below it are the two appellate courts, Superior Court and Commonwealth Court, followed by the Courts of Common Pleas. The base of the pyramid is the minor judiciary of the community courts, district justices, the municipal and traffic courts of Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh's police magistrate courts. The citizens of Pennsylvania depend on the judicial system to interpret and apply the laws of our Commonwealth. It is a great responsibility and a very important one in terms of maintaining order and justice in our state. This section examines the various jurisdictions of Pennsylvania's courts and the responsibilities and restrictions of the judges and justices of those courts. 156. HOW DOES THE CONSTITUTION PROVIDE FOR JUDICIAL POWER? The fifth article of the Constitution vests judicial power of the Commonwealth in a "unified judicial system consisting of the Supreme Court, the Superior Court, the Commonwealth Court, Courts of Common Pleas, community courts, municipal and traffic courts in the City of Philadelphia" and other courts as provided by law and justices of the peace.

53. United States Government - The Judicial Branch United States Government the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution. — Charles Evans Hughes, Chief http://countrystudies.us/united-states/government-15.htm

The Judicial Branch: Interpreting the Constitution United States Government "... the judiciary is the safeguard of our liberty and of our property under the Constitution." — Charles Evans Hughes, Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, Speech at Elmira, New York, 1907 The third branch of the federal government, the judiciary, consists of a system of courts spread throughout the country, headed by the Supreme Court of the United States. A system of state courts existed before the Constitution was drafted. There was considerable controversy among the delegates to the Constitutional Convention as to whether a federal court system was needed, and whether it should supplant the state courts. As in other matters under debate, the delegates reached a compromise in which the state courts continued their jurisdiction while the Constitution mandated a federal judiciary with limited power. Article III of the Constitution states the basis for the federal court system: "The judicial power of the United States shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and such inferior courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish." THE FEDERAL COURT SYSTEM With this guide, the first Congress divided the nation into districts and created federal courts for each district. From that beginning has evolved the present structure: the Supreme Court, 13 courts of appeals, 94 district courts, and two courts of special jurisdiction. Congress today retains the power to create and abolish federal courts, as well as to determine the number of judges in the federal judiciary system. It cannot, however, abolish the Supreme Court.
