The 15 judges of the Court of Appeals share the duty of sitting on the Court’s motions panel at regular intervals. This three-judge panel reviews many of the motions filed with the Court before a case is assigned to a judge. The motions panel determines matters related to jurisdiction and procedure. Only current and senior judges may sit on the motions panel. Three of the Court’s staff attorneys aid the motions panel.
