The Supreme Court of the United Federation of Planets (or, simply, Federation Supreme Court) is the highest court in the Federation.
When Richard Bashir found out that the secret of his son's genetic enhancments had gotten out, he said he'd "arrange legal counsel and . . . fight this all the way to the Federation Supreme Court". (DS9: "Doctor Bashir, I Presume")
- Based on Bashir's statement this court has final and unappealable appellate jurisdiction over Federation laws. This may or may not extend to Starfleet regulations, however. He may have engaged in the sort of hyperbole Americans do when they speak of taking something "all the way to the Supreme Court" but the court could not possibly hear the case due to jurisdictional and procedural reasons.
