Question

Which of the following is a true statement about judges in the U.S. court system?

Answer 1

"A. All Judges are appointed at both the state and federal levels of the court system in the united States" is the only true statement, since this is one of the "checks" that keeps the state and federal governments functioning properly.

Answer 2

Answer:

B. Judges are appointed at the federal level, and the system for selecting judges differs by state government.

Explanation:

At the federal level, judges are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. They also serve life terms of office. However, in terms of state courts, most states have at least some judges who are elected. The terms of appointment of judges varies greatly among different states. Most of the time, these judges are attorneys that have already enjoyed a career in law. However, state judges can occasionally be appointed who have not had previous experience with law, especially in small towns.
