The highest judicial body of the United States is the Supreme Court (SCOTUS or USSC); it is the only court established by the United States Constitution as one of the three divisions of political power (executive and legislative). The judicial branch has the sole power to interpret the law and apply it to particular disputes, the power to determine the disposition of prisoners, and the power to compel testimony and the production of documents. There is no standard qualification of age or experience, justices are nominated by the President (executive) and confirmed with "advice and consent" of the Senate (legislative). Appointments to the US Supreme Court are for life; to leave the court a justice may resign, or a judge may be removed by impeachment. Currently the US Supreme Count consists of nine Justices: eight Associate Judges and a Chief Justice. Courts are generally known by the name of the Chief Justice.
