What are the judicial powers of the US Supreme Court and where does this power come from?
The US Supreme Court has a number of judicial powers exclusive to their name, stated in Article III of the Constitution. These powers consist of reviewing certain cases such as all cases dealing with constitutional law, all cases relating to admiralty or maritime jurisdiction, and all cases dealing with ambassadors or public leaders. They also deal with controversies such as controversies between two or more states, citizens of different states, or a state and citizens of another state, among others. These specific powers come from Article III Section 2.
