Answer: The supreme court

Step-by-step explanation:

Each U.S. state has its own state supreme court, which is the highest authority interpreting that state's law and administering that state's judiciary. Two states, Oklahoma and Texas, each have two separate highest courts that hear criminal and civil appellate matters.
