The video tutorial explains the differences between civil and common law systems, focusing on the common law system in the United States. It describes the trial level where disputes are initially handled and the role of the appellate courts in reviewing trial court decisions. The appellate courts assess whether laws were applied correctly and constitutionally, and their decisions contribute to common law, effectively allowing the judicial branch to participate in law-making.
