HISTORY OF FEDERAL JUDGESHIPS

INTRODUCTION

The History of Federal Judgeships documents the process for soliciting and evaluating requests for additional appellate and district court judgeships, as well as for forwarding recommendations for these judgeships to Congress. Information on this site focuses on appellate and district court judgeships, but also includes historic information on authorized judgeships for all courts and judgeship appointments by presidents since 1933.
 
With the exception of judgeship appointments by presidents, information on this site changes infrequently. When changes do occur, appropriate sections of this site are updated. For additional information on the History of Federal Judgeships, please contact the Analytical Services Office (Office of Judges Programs) at 202/502-1180.
