1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Supreme Court Justices are nominated by the President and must then receive the approval of the Senate before they assume office.

    Usually, Supreme Court Justices are selected from among the ranks of the legal profession, but there are actually no hard and fast rules on who the President can pick. In theory, he can nominate anyone at all.
