Question

Outline the process by which most federal judges are nominated and approved

Answer 1

Answer:

The senate advises the president on the nominations of credible candidates by merit to become federal judges, the president then nominates the persons and the senate subsequently confirms the appointments.

Explanation:

The senate often recommends nominees. In some cases, the members of the house, who share the same political affiliations with the sitting president can recommend potential candidates. In the case of the U.S, the Senate Judiciary Committee would do confirmation hearings for each candidate and these legal officers are appointed as judges for a life term.  

In some countries, like France, the appointments are made with special considerations for those with advanced qualifications (such as Doctor of Law).
