How many district courts exist across the United States?

94 50 13 150

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Federal district courts are the trial courts of the federal judiciary. Across the United States there are 94 district courts, covering every state plus the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories. Larger states are divided into several districts to handle caseloads—for example, California and Texas each have multiple districts (like Northern, Southern, Central, and Eastern). These district courts feed into the circuit Courts of Appeals and, ultimately, the Supreme Court. So there are 94 district courts in total.
