Only the judges and justices of Article III Courts are part of the Judicial Branch in the United States. These courts are limited to:

  • US District Courts
  • US Court of International Trade
  • US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts
  • Supreme Court of the United States

Other judges may be part of the federal judiciary, or federal court system, but are typically part of the Legislative Branch. Examples include US Bankruptcy Courts, US Tax Courts, US Court of Federal Claims, etc.

The Supreme Court of the United States, as an institution, is head of the Judicial Branch of the US government. The Chief Justice of the United States (aka Chief Justice of the Supreme Court) leads the Judicial Branch during his (or her) tenure in office.

The current Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, John G. Roberts, Jr., was appointed in 2005.
