Is there something about Georgia as a state that is different than any other state? And is supreme court and superior court the same thing? Are there branches in arbitration that the scale is leveraged from and what tree and litigation as leverage to the little plastic table for inside the supreme pizza hut box?

Would the framers of the constitution be proud of this branch of government if they could experience its current state today or would they believe this branch has exceeded its authority and legitimacy per the intentions within the constitution? Explain reasoning and provide evidence.
