# Federal District and Territorial Court Map

> **Boundary:** court identity, circuit assignment, official homepage, and official rules-location coverage are verified as listed. The substantive text of each district's local rules is **not verified** until an issue-specific reviewer checks the current rule, standing orders, filing procedures, and later amendments.

## National structure

<!-- claim:CLM-DISTRICT-MAP-001 authorities:AUTH-AO-DISTRICT-COURTS status:verified_current -->
The federal judicial system has 94 district-level courts: 91 Article III district courts and three Article IV territorial courts—the District Court of Guam, District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands, and District Court of the Virgin Islands. [Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts](https://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts/court-role-and-structure/about-us-district-courts)

<!-- claim:CLM-DISTRICT-MAP-002 authorities:AUTH-AO-CURRENT-RULES status:verified_current -->
Federal courts may prescribe local rules under 28 U.S.C. § 2071 and the applicable national procedural rule, and federal courts must post local rules on their public websites. [Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts](https://www.uscourts.gov/forms-rules/current-rules-practice-procedure)

The Federal Circuit is not included as a geographic parent circuit because it does not receive ordinary federal criminal appeals based on district location.

## Change monitoring and legal review

The committed registry is canonical for court identity and source location. A separate network monitor fingerprints the official rule locations and reports changes. Its output always says legal conclusions were not changed; a detected difference enters a review queue and cannot alter a claim, authority, module, or verification status.

Run:

    python scripts/check_district_rules.py --fail-on-change
    python scripts/catalog_district_rules.py --fail-on-change

The accepted document catalog covers official court-wide local-rule, rules-and-orders collection, and filing-procedure sources discoverable from each registered rules location. Judge-specific chambers practices are excluded. A successful fetch or unchanged hash proves only that the monitored resource was reachable or unchanged. It does not prove that any local rule, standing order, filing instruction, or later amendment has been legally interpreted or applied correctly.
