Senatorial courtesy, which refers to deference given to political endorsement or opposition to a federal judicial nominations from a Senator's home state, plays a significant role in the selection and appointment of US District Court judges. The President and Senate often agree to the suggestions, making the nomination, hearing, and floor vote a quick and simple process.

Suggestions for US Court of Appeals Circuit Court and US Supreme Court nominations may be considered and screened, but are not given as much weight because these judges and justices play a more significant role in setting precedents and shaping the federal legal system.
