What is the highest court in the United States?

Answer:

Supreme Court

Why this is the correct answer

The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States and has final authority on matters of federal and constitutional law. Its rulings cannot be overturned by lower courts and set precedents that guide the entire legal system. Congress or a constitutional amendment would be needed to override a Supreme Court decision.
