The State Judicial Selection Process

• Each state within the United States has its own unique judicial selection process within its own court system.
• Using the Internet or Strayer databases, research the judicial selection process for different court systems from different states within the U.S. Court System.

Write a five to eight (5-8) page paper in which you:

Question 1: Discuss the judicial selection process of your state. Include, at a minimum, the qualifications and steps that are taken in order to select judges for the different kinds of courts within your specific state.

Question 2: Choose a second state, and describe the qualifications and the selection process for judges within that state.

Question 3: Compare and contrast for both states the qualifications necessary for a prospective candidate to become a judge. Next, identify the steps that the relevant persons / entities need to take in order to remove a judge from office for disciplinary reasons for each state.

Question 4: Justify the selection process for the state that you believe has the best system in place. Justify the response.
