Further Explanation:
Let’s discuss and understand what these both type of jurisdictions actually are:-
Original Jurisdiction – The courts have original jurisdiction over all the cases that require ‘Federal Law’. These courts can also exercise their powers to the cases which have diversity jurisdiction. Diversity jurisdiction takes place only when both the parties belong to two different states. The courts which are included under original Jurisdiction are – State Trail courts, Traffic courts, Family courts, Juvenile Courts, Tax Courts and other courts related to Supreme Court of United States.Appellate Jurisdiction – In the case of Appellate Jurisdiction, the court hears the appeal from the court of original jurisdiction. The higher court views the trials and appeals done by lower court during the case. This has to be noted here that in appellate jurisdiction, Court never hears the entire case. It just reviews that weather lower court made any error in the verdict of that case and it finds out any error, Then appellate court has right to reverse the order to Original jurisdiction. The courts that exercise appellate jurisdiction are the state courts of appeal, State superior courts, state supreme courts and federal district courts.
The United States constitution has given power to Supreme Court of both original and appellate jurisdiction.
