Court of Appeals in Cases of Capture : ウィキペディア英語版 | Court of Appeals in Cases of Capture
The former Court of Appeals in Cases of Capture, established by resolution of the Second Continental Congress on January 15, 1780,〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Jan. 15, 1780, in 16 ''Journals'' 61-64. )〕 was the first federal court in the United States of America. ==Origin== The idea for the Court originated from requests sent by General George Washington during the American Revolution to President of Congress John Hancock,〔(George Washington, Letter to the President of Congress dated Nov. 11, 1775, in 3 ''The Writings'' 213-14. )〕〔(George Washington, Letter to the President of Congress dated Dec. 4, 1775, in 3 ''The Writings'' 257-58. )〕 but initially resulted in only the establishment of committees within Congress to exercise such jurisdiction.〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Nov. 17, 1775, in 3 ''Journals'' 357-58. )〕〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Nov. 23, 1775, in 3 ''Journals'' 364-65. )〕〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Nov. 24, 1775, in 3 ''Journals'' 368-69. )〕〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Nov. 25, 1775, in 3 ''Journals'' 371-75. )〕 Upon learning of this deviation from his earlier requests, Washington sent another request to Hancock again asking that Congress establish the Court,〔(George Washington, Letter to the President of Congress dated Dec. 14, 1775, in 3 ''The Writings'' 274. )〕〔(Cont'l Cong., Journal and Records from Dec. 26, 1775, in 3 ''Journals'' 457. )〕 but Congress did not fulfill his request until almost four years later.〔
