Courts of appeals are generally presided by appeals court judges. Appeals to supreme courts are handled by what are known as Justices. Normally appeals court judges are panel of between three and five judges. Supreme Court Justices are generally up to nine.
Courts of appeals, including State and US Supreme Courts, seat a panel of three or more judges to review a case, in an attempt to ensure fairness and impartiality. A decision for a three-judge panel requires a 2-1 or 3-0 vote.
State supreme courts usually commission five to nine justices, who typically hear cases en banc (as a whole group). The US Supreme Court seats nine justices who also hear cases en banc, although fewer justices may hear a case, as long as the court convenes a quorum of six. Decisions require a simple majority (one vote more than half the justices hearing the case; for example, 5-4).
