And the Ninth
Circuit is the most overturned of the appeals courts in the US by the
Supreme Court, so it is hardly final.

Complete nonsense which just further demonstrates your complete
ignorance. Circuit courts don't decide their jurisdiction. It is
determined by where the case takes place. His was in California which
is in the 9th Circuit. It is both the biggest and the nuttiest,
making it the most frequently overturned year in and year out. Even
if the government could place cases where they wanted, they would
hardly put them in the one which is the most routinely overturned.
Which is why it is referred to as the "nutty 9th" by other appeals
judges.

Implied, but not said explicitely, the Appeals Court districts
are geographically defined by legislation passed by Congress. The
Ninth Circuit is much large than the others, geographically. From
Wikipedia:
---------------------------------------------------------

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is a federal
court with appellate jurisdiction over the district courts in the
following districts:

* District of Alaska
* District of Arizona
* Central District of California
* Eastern District of California
* Northern District of California
* Southern District of California
* District of Hawaii
* District of Idaho
* District of Montana
* District of Nevada
* District of Oregon
* Eastern District of Washington
* Western District of Washington

It also has appellate jurisdiction over the following territorial
courts:

* District Court of Guam
* District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands
---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a large and disparate district, and the Ninth Circuit
handles a huge number of appeals; it is inevitable that many
decisions will be overturned.
