Judges of the court
The court is composed of nine judges. Each judge is appointed for one year by the governor, from a list of nominees composed by the State Judicial Nominating Commission. The judge will then serve a one-year term before facing a retention election. If the judge is reelected, his/her term will normally be six years. The retirement age is 72, after which some judges take senior status.
The judges elect the Chief Judge from among themselves every two years. The chief judge functions as the administrative head of the court.
