Answer 5

well, for the other one my notes says:
The federal court of original jurisdiction is the U.S. District Court. Each state has at least one federal trial court and there are currently 94 total. The federal district courts do not split into separate courts for criminal and civil trials, though the Congress has created some specialized courts for issues like disputes over income taxes. The majority of federal cases are settled in these courts.

Answer 6

B is correct. Supreme Court justices serve indefinite terms, limited only by their own resignation or impeachment by the House and removal by the Senate (the President's concurrence is not necessary). Congress has expanded the Supreme Court, but never contracted it.
