The Supreme Court is the ultimate judiciary body to maintain the
Constitution and law of the United States. Above the doors of
the magnificent corinthian marble structure are the words "Equal
justice under law"
and inside, the court meets to make descisions upon matters that
need to be resolved independantly from the executive and legislature.
A collection of portraits of previous Justices is kept on the
ground floor and visitors may hear a lecture given in the Courtroom
when the court is not in session.
