| | Supreme Court - News, Pictures, MP3, Videos and Gossip |
| | The '''supreme court''' in some countries, provinces, and states, is the highest court in that jurisdiction and functions as a '''court of last resort''' whose rulings cannot be appealed. | | | In the United States, for example, there is a federal Supreme Court as well as supreme courts within most of the states. | | | Each state and territory has its own supreme court, which leads to some confusion among those from other jurisdictions as the term "supreme court" seems to refer to the court of last resort. |

| | Hence, the role of the Australian lawyer is to advise the client, prepare the case and then leave it to a local lawyer to run the appearances in court. | | | Unlike arbitral awards which are final, court rulings are subject to appeal, unless the ruling is made by an appellate court. | | | The court hierarchy in China is similar to that in the West and is divided into four levels; Supreme People's Court (national), High People's Court (provincial), Intermediate People's Court (municipal) and Basic People's Court (county/district). |

| | The Law Report: 31 August 1999 - The Family Court - Is it fundamentally flawed or just misunderstood? |
| | The court seems to be blaming the lawyers for unnecessarily protracting proceedings, or whatever. | | | The ALRC found Family Court procedures were felt to be rigid and bureauratic, that an inflexible approach forced litigants through a number of 'court events' adding to delays and costs. | | | But I think also the court itself is unnecessarily defensive when people do criticise it, the court's hierarchy. |
