All your questions can be answered in the Constitution. It's very specific and written pretty well.
Jon S.
asked 07/26/191. How does a person become a member of the U.S. Supreme Court? Briefly explain the nomination and confirmation process of determining membership of the Court. As you provide answers, be sure and note any applicable Constitutional provisions. You should address, among other things, what factors go into deciding to nominate a specific person and to confirm a candidate.
2. Distinguish between the establishment clause and the free exercise clause of the First Amendment. Explain your answers. Assume that a city council passed an ordinance prohibiting prayers before meals in public restaurants. Would this be an establishment clause or free exercise case? Explain your answer.
3. Distinguish between the types of courts in the federal court system. Be sure and explain the hierarchy of that court system and the basic functions of each level of that hierarchy, including the role of the judges and justices at each level. The more clearly you distinguish between the functions of the differing levels, the better your chances of scoring well on this question.
4. What does the term jurisdiction mean as it relates to a court of law? Describe three kinds of cases, or categories of cases, that the federal courts have jurisdiction over. Which specific part or parts describe the jurisdiction of federal courts? How can a state court case eventually end up before the U.S. Supreme Court, or is that not possible?
Regarding the relationship between the three branches of government, what kind of powers does the judicial branch have over the other two branches? Describe this power and how that power is achieved? What powers or checks does the legislative branch have over the judicial branch? Explain your answers clearly and from where are those powers derived?
p.s they only need to be brief answers
