A ruling made by a court of appeals is?

Question

I believe its B.

A. Based on the factual evidence introduced at trial.

B. Valid only within the states that make up the circuit of that court.

C. Made on the basis of oral argument alone.

D. Automatically taken to the Supreme Court.

E. Most likely the result of a decision of all the judges in the circuit.

Answer 1

I hope this isn't from a real test or class assignment because the answer is F: None of the Above.

It may not be binding authority in states outside the circuit, but that doesn't make it invalid or unpersuasive.

Answer 2

none of the above.

a ruling made by CoA's are a rehearing of a case from district court, where the apellant didnt think he/she got the right the decision, no new evidence, no new witnesses, just oral arguments.
