<p begin="00:00:05.41" end="00:00:11.30">There are really 51 different legal systems in this country, broken down into two main categories:</p>
<p begin="00:00:11.40" end="00:00:14.00">the federal courts and the state courts.</p>
<p begin="00:00:14.11" end="00:00:22.00">Each state court system is slightly different. Here in Ohio, we are served by both the federal courts and Ohio’s courts.</p>
<p begin="00:00:22.20" end="00:00:29.21">Federal courts handle federal crimes and civil actions that often times involve parties from multiple states.</p>
<p begin="00:00:30.01" end="00:00:37.40">State courts, however, handle all alleged violations of state and local law, plus civil cases originating in Ohio.</p>
<p begin="00:00:38.01" end="00:00:46.30">In most counties, we have three different courts: the municipal court, the common pleas court, and the probate/juvenile court.</p>
<p begin="00:00:47.01" end="00:00:51.31">All judges serving those courts are elected by the voters of each county.</p>
<p begin="00:00:52.01" end="00:00:58.31">Over the next several programs, we will be examining what each court does and how it’s designed to serve the people.</p>
<p begin="00:00:59.01" end="00:01:04.01">This legal minute is brought to you by the Ohio State Bar Foundation.</p>
