Answer (1)

U.S. District Courts have original jurisdiction over most federal cases, while the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction in cases involving ambassadors or disputes between states. U.S. Courts of Appeal do not have original jurisdiction as they only hear appeals. Therefore, the correct answer includes both the Supreme Court and U.S. District Courts. ;
