Answer 1

C. a US district court, i just had that question

Answer 2

C. A U.S. district court

Step-by-step explanation:

If a person commits a federal crime, he or she will most likely encounter a U.S. district court first. These are the general trial courts of the federal court system. An appellate court, a court of appeals and the Supreme Court only review cases that have already been heard in a lower court.
