What judicial structure was established under the 1802 constitution?

Only supreme court for the whole state
Supreme court for the state and courts of common pleas within each county
District courts with elected judges
Circuit courts with appointed judges

The correct answer is: Supreme court for the state and courts of common pleas within each county

The 1802 constitution established a judicial structure that included a supreme court for the state, as well as courts of common pleas within each county. This was a significant change from the previous constitution, which only had one supreme court for the entire state. Option A is incorrect because it only mentions one supreme court, while option B specifies the inclusion of multiple courts. Option C is incorrect as district courts were not mentioned in the 1802 constitution. Option D is incorrect because it refers to circuit courts, which were not established until later in 1846.
