The Judicial Branch Practice Test

Concurrent jurisdiction of Congress and the President, because boundary disputes are political questions decided by elected branches.

The Supreme Court’s original jurisdiction, because Article III and federal statute allow certain state-versus-state cases to begin there.

The Supreme Court’s appellate jurisdiction, because all controversies must be tried in district court before any Supreme Court involvement.

A U.S. court of appeals’ original jurisdiction, because interstate disputes must be heard by a three-judge panel first.

Exclusive jurisdiction of state courts, because states retain full sovereignty over boundary questions under the Tenth Amendment.
