Definitions

supreme court

The highest court of law in any country, mandated to make the ultimate decision in any appeals process.

A supreme court is the highest court of law in any particular country, vested with ultimate authority to decide cases and to interpret the law. It generally accepts cases of special importance that come to it through successive appeals in lower courts.

Only national supreme courts should be classified with this usage; if a sub-national court is named a "supreme court" it should still be classified as a sub-national court.
