The President of the United States appoints district court judges, but they must be approved by the US Senate. The president also appoints the justices of the Supreme Court and the appeals court judges.

In the U.S. Federal Courts, district court judges are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. With district judges, the President typically (but not always) follows the recommendation of the senior Senator of the state with the opening who is also from the President's party (if there is one).
