could I be in the Supreme Court?
For my last unit of policy we have been focusing on the judicial branch. More specifically the U.S. Supreme Court, we have learned about different cases the Supreme Court has heard. We learned about the different between federal and state courts. Which if you didn't know the type of cases heard for The Federal Court System are cases involving laws and treaties of the U.S., cases involving disputes between two or more states, Bankruptcy, etc. The type of cases heard for The State Court System involve most criminal cases, tort cases, family law, probate, etc. We watched a PBS Supreme Court video which told us the different roles on SCOTUS and things like the first Chief Justice and what the Federalist Party and Democratic Republic party was. We got the opportunity to speak to Ken Gunn who is the first deputy commissioner of the CCHR (Commission on Human Relations) and Iyana Simba from the Illinois Environment Council. Given everything we learned in this unit we were asked for the final action project of my junior year to act as if I am a nominee for the Supreme Court and am being asked questions. I have added a slideshow below that shows the questions and my answers, do you think I could be in the Supreme Court?
