Welcome to NO Niches! The objective of this podcast is to combat complacency and bring new value to the lives of those with curious and open minds. In Notorious Confirmation of ACB, host Nii Amaa Ollennu shares his journey from triggered to informed. In this episode, Jack and Nii discuss dynamics of the appellate courts, the importance of balance, and the politicization of the nomination and confirmation process. Background: The US Constitution is the supreme law of the United States. It sets out the limits under which our government can operate. The Constitution does not set forth requirements for place of birth, age, or education or profession of Justices. Congress and the President are given the power to establish the number of Justices sitting on the Supreme Court, as well as the judges in the other 2 levels of federal court. The 1869 Judiciary Act solidified the number of Justices on that Court at 9 and established a 6 Justice quorum.
