U.S. Courts careers
2 verified openings
Ninety-four federal judicial districts cover the country, at least one in every state and one in the District of Columbia, and each carries a bankruptcy court inside it as a unit of the district court. Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands have courts hearing federal cases too. Two special trial courts sit apart from all of that: the Court of International Trade, and the Court of Federal Claims, which handles most money-damages claims against the government.
The judiciary sits outside the executive branch's personnel system and sets its own terms within Judicial Conference policy. Each of the 94 districts runs human resources locally, so the same job title can mean quite different things from one courthouse to the next.
