What is the source of the federal court system's authority?

2 answers

The US Constitution.
I do want to mention a slight problem with this. Our Constitution recognizes treaties as a source for law and rights. Some treaties conflict with US law based on the US Constitution. So far, the Supreme Court has not directly ruled on the supremacy of the constitution or approved treaties in these matters.
