Answer to Question 1

The functions of the court are to uphold the laws as created and defined by legislature, protect individuals, resolve disputes, and reinforce social norms. Courts have legal authority to make binding decisions.

A dual court system allows for separate courts for the federal government and federal issues from a state court system that addresses state legal issues. A dual court system is desirable because it parallels federalism, wherein the only powers of the federal government are those explicitly listed and the rest of the binding legal powers are left to the individual states.

Answer to Question 2

True
