Government of Indiana
The Supreme Court of Indiana is the highest judicial body in Indiana. The court oversees the lower courts and commissions that jointly make up the judicial branch. The other courts include the Indiana Tax Court, the Indiana Court of Appeals, and circuit, superior, and city or town courts. Every county in the state has a circuit court, in which all matter of suits may be filed, and the larger cities (such as Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend, Evansville, and Terre Haute) have courts of concurrent jurisdiction that act as superior or municipal courts. The courts are assisted by several commissions that are also part of the judicial branch, including the Judicial Nominating Commission.

Public law is law that governs the relationship between people and the State, and it is composed of three types: constitutional law, criminal law, and administrative law. "Constitutional law" is the body of law that governs the principles and powers of the government, and the relationships between the different parts of the government. "Criminal law" is law that restricts conduct that threatens safety and welfare of society or the State. "Administrative law" is law that regulates the operation and procedures of government agencies. The judicial branch is the branch of government that interprets the laws, and its body of laws is called case law.
