The Supreme Court of Arabi (SCOA) is the highest court in the federal judiciary of the United Socialist States. It has ultimate appellate jurisdiction over all federal and state court cases that involve a point of federal law, and original jurisdiction over a narrow range of cases, including suits between two or more states and those involving ambassadors. The Court holds the power of judicial review, the ability to invalidate a statue for violating a provision of the U.S.S. Constitution. It is also able to strike down presidential directives for violating either the Constitution or statutory law. It may act only within the context of a case in an area of law over which it has jurisdiction. The court may decide cases having political overtones, but it has ruled that it does not have power to decide non-justiciable political questions.
Established by Article III of the Constitution, the composition and procedures of the Supreme Court were established by the 1st Arabin Congress. The Court consists of the chief justice of Arabi and eight associate justices. Each justice has a lifetime tenure, meaning they remain on the Court until they resign, retire, die, or are removed from office. When a vacancy occurs, the president, with advice and consent of the Senate, appoints a new justice. Each justice has a single vote in deciding cases argued before it. When in majority, the chief justice decides who writes the opinion of the court; otherwise, the most senior justice in the majority assigns the task of writing the opinion.
The Court meets in the Supreme Court Building in the District.
