The correct option is B

The United States district courts are 94 courts of first instance of the federal judicial system of the United States. Both civil and criminal cases are the responsibility of the district courts, which are courts of law, equity and admiralty. There is a bankruptcy court associated with each district court in the United States. Each federal judicial district has at least one courthouse and several districts have more than one.
