Answer: judges appointed to serve based on their political affiliation.

Explanation:

The Judiciary Act of 1801 was signed by John Adams in the last days of his presidency (1797–1801) and was meant to reorganize the federal judiciary by establishing the first circuit judgeships in America.

Thomas Jefferson, the following president, saw the Judiciary Act as an effort by Adams to hold control of the judiciary by crowding it with federalist supporters, so the act was repealed in 1802.

Mamont248 [21]

In March 1638, Anne Hutchinson was banished from Massachusetts Bay Colony, the reason was that she had become a spiritual leader and challenged male authority. She preached to both men and women, meaning she opposed the authority of the religious leaders of the Bay Colony. They accused her for heresy, as she critized the puritans beliefs. The real reason was that she indirectly questioned the stablished roles, as men were the only ones that could preach, therefore more women could rebel. Saying she had a direct rebelation from god and that she was able to interpret  the scriptures was the final things that made it possible to them to excommunicate her.
