How do I determine if a case is a function of the federal or state court system?

Question

How do I determine if a case is a function of the federal or state court system?

Second, how do I know whether a case falls under federal or state jurisdiction?

And lastly, what does it mean when they ask, "explain the differences between the jurisdiction and original venue for
each case?"

Thanks to all those who are willing to help me with these questions. I am trying to figure out a few cases and I am confused on these things. If you aren't willing to help, please don't answer the question. Thanks again!!!

Answer 1

I imagine you are talking about civil cases. You can check the applicable law that is involved. If it is a State statute, the state court would be involved, and vica versa. There are a few exceptions such as the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Law, which can be brought in state courts.

Answer 2

you're taking regulation classes and want somebody to do your paintings? If a case concerns a federal offense it's going to be heard in a federal court docket. If the offense is state in nature it's going to be heared in a state court docket. If an offense violates the two state and federal regulation, the federal court docket has jurisdiction and the penalty is greater severe, with out destroy day for snitching or good habit.
