Selection method
- See also: Partisan election of judges
All judges on the Alabama Court of Civil Appeals and Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals are elected for six-year terms in partisan elections.[2]
There are five judges on the Alabama Court of Civil Appeals and five on the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals. Vacancies, which can occur when a judge dies, resigns, retires or is removed from office, are filled through appointments by the governor of Alabama. Any judge appointed in this fashion must then stand for election in the next general election occurring at least one year after taking office.[3]
Qualifications
To be considered a candidate for either court, the person must:
- Be licensed to practice law in Alabama.
- Have lived in Alabama for at least one year.
- Be 70 years of age or younger at the time of candidacy.[4]
Selection of the chief judge
In the civil appeals court, the chief is chosen by seniority; in the criminal appeals court, the chief is chosen by peer vote. Both courts maintain their chief judges for indefinite terms.[3]
