Selection of State Court Judges in the USA Appointment: The state's governor or legislature choose the judges. Merit Selection: Judges are chosen by a legislative committee based on each potential judge's past performance.

Partisan Elections: Judges selected through partisan elections are voted in by the electorate, and often run as part of a political party's slate of candidates. |

Criminal law In criminal law the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) decides whether or not to bring a case to court and put the defendant on trial. During the trial the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty. This means the prosecution must prove that the defendant is guilty beyond reasonable doubt. The defendant will be found guilty or not guilty. If the defendant is found guilty they will be punished with either a non-custodial or custodial sentence. |
