Document Summary
Problem of keeping them is poor salary. Must be confirmed by of the senate. If you make it through 1 and 2, then you are appointed for life! Bio of a federal judge is far more impressive than a state judge, which is why. About 900 federal judges total who have a lot of power federal courts work better for business cases. The state court system (know for exam) Bench trials with just judge and two parties. 10k max limit an individual can sue another party for. *5k max limit a company can sue another party for (correct amount, not right in ur) Most likely to sue in small claims even if filing for 10. 8k since it is just faster, easier, and less stressful. If you lose in the municipal court you go to intermediate court to appeal. Need to get judges to agree with you to win the appeal.
