Federal Courts Improvement Act : ウィキペディア英語版 | Federal Courts Improvement Act The Federal Courts Improvement Act, 96 Stat. 25., was a law enacted by the United States on April 2, 1982 which established the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the United States Claims Court (later changed to the United States Court of Federal Claims). The statute was intended to promote greater uniformity in certain areas of federal jurisdiction and relieve the pressure on the dockets of the Supreme Court and the courts of appeals for the regional circuits.〔(History of the Federal Judiciary, Landmark Judicial Legislation ).〕 ==History== In 1971, a committee appointed by Chief Justice Warren Burger proposed the creation a National Court of Appeals that would decide cases and screen petitions for appeal to the United States Supreme Court.〔 The 1975 report of the Commission on Revision of the Federal Court Appellate System proposed a like-named court that would determine national law and resolve inter-circuit conflicts by deciding certain categories of cases referred to it by the Supreme Court and the courts of appeals. Congress rejected both proposals for a national court of appeals, but the studies drew attention to the problems associated with the lack of uniform rulings in specialized areas of jurisdiction.〔 A proposal drafted by the Department of Justice led to the request led President Jimmy Carter to request in 1979 that Congress establish a court of appeals for a Federal Circuit, to be on the same jurisdictional level as the other U.S. courts of appeals. The proposed court would combine the functions of the Court of Customs and Patent Appeals with those of the U.S. Court of Claims, and the president also urged Congress to consider vesting the proposed court with the jurisdiction to promote uniformity and predictability in federal tax cases. The House and Senate failed to complete consideration of the bill before the end of Carter's term. The legislation was reintroduced in 1981, based on an endorsement by the Judicial Conference of the United States and support from business leaders.〔
