Ever wonder how a judge gets to be the one holding the gavel? Federal court judges are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. State judges, on the other hand, are either elected or appointed depending on the state’s methods of judicial selection. In California, nonpartisan election determines who fills vacant seats in Superior Courts, while Court of Appeals and Supreme Court justices are nominated by the governor, then confirmed by the Commission on Judicial Appointments.
