| Summary |
The writers of the Constitution were determined that the judiciary would be a separate branch of the federal government but, for practical reasons, did not spell out the full structure of the federal court system. Article III establishes the Supreme Court of the United States, and then grants Congress the authority to establish lower federal courts of its choosing. Unlike the executive and legislative branches, there are no age, residency, or citizenship qualifications for federal judicial office, nor are top officials elected by the people. Federal judges are nominated by the president, and if confirmed by the U.S. Senate, appointed by the president to the office |
