Answer to Question 1

Intermediate courts of appeals were created to help the state courts of last resort deal with a significant growth in appellate cases. ICAs may be structured on a statewide or regional basis. In states without ICAs the state high court of last resort must hear all properly filed criminal appeals. State high courts of last resort with ICAs are able to choose their cases based on broad legal and policy significance, making them important policy-making bodies.

Answer to Question 2

Punitive
