请从正文部分开始听写The United States court system includes federal and state courts. Federal courts deal with criminal and civil actions
involving the United States Constitution or federal laws.
Federal courts try cases involving the United States government. They hear cases between people from different states and cases involving other countries or their citizens.
They also hear cases involving situations that took place on the sea and violations of ownership rights. Each state has at least one federal district court. District courts are the first courts to hear cases involving violations of federal laws. Then the cases may be heard again in appeals courts. The United States is divided into 12 district areas. Each one has a court of appeals. There is also a federal court of appeals.
The federal court system also includes special courts. They try cases involving claims against the federal government, tax disputes, and military questions.
