What is the difference between district courts circuit court?

It really depends what kind of courts you are talking about and where the courts are. If the courts are federal, then a district court is a trial court and a circuit court is an appeals court, which may review a trial decision from a district court. For state courts, the difference between a district court and a circuit court will depend on what state the courts are in. Many states have courts called "district court" and "circuit court," but what kinds of cases these courts handle differs state to state.

That does not translate into the trial being moved to another state, it is moved to another jurisdiction,county, etc. The defendant must stand trial in the state in which the crime was committed.
