13 appellate courts. 12 jurors and a judge. The number seems just right. This is one of things I've suggested to fix the court. Also, don't let it get political, make it professional. Allow the courts to do the nomination process. The 94 districts nominate one person. The appellate then winnows that list down to 12 based on qualifications and service. That 12 is then sent to the President and a name must be selected from that list. The senate then confirms.
The Dems will pursue Court Reform. Count on it. There will be a very public process, and it will rebuild the court.
