Answer 1

Answer: The Supreme Court in Georgia consists of 9 judges, who are led by a chief justice.

The correct answer is 9.

Explanation:

The Supreme Court in  Georgia is the highest court in that state. The constitution of Georgia granted a Supreme Court in 1835, but the court did not officially begin until 1845.

In 2016, there was an amendment for two more judges to be added which brought the total of justices to 9.

This court presides over numerous cases every year and is the final hearing that a defendant can receive. This court has jurisdiction in election tampering and fraud, death sentences, habeas corpus cases, and all cases of the Georgia Constitution, among other cases.
