The three modes of selecting the Chief Justice are by electing or appointing one as such, by leaving the judges themselves to determine which shall act, or by a provision making the one whose term expires first act. These modes are indicated in the table by A, B, and C, respectively. In the salary column, where two numbers appear, the upper is the salary of the Chief Justice. In giving jurisdiction of Circuit courts, L means law only, LE means jurisdiction in both law and equity, 30, C, c, L7 means 30 years old, a citizen of the US and of the state, and seven years legal practice. LL means "learned in the law".
In Me, Mass, N.H., and S.D., the Supreme Court is required to give legal advice to the Governor.
[Footnote 1: Called Superior Court, at least one in each county. This court also exercises the Probate powers.]
[Footnote 2: Probate Court given some other duty, unrelated to its regular function. L means that it has also certain civil jurisdiction.]
[Footnote 3: Continuous.]
[Footnote 4: Competent number.]
[Footnote 5: As many as are needed.]
