- The Court of Appeals Judge deals with a majority of cases appealed from the Superior and District courts in civil and criminal cases.
- They are the only intermediate appellate court in the state, meaning they are the only court that sits between lower courts and the state Supreme Court.
- Judges on the Court of Appeals are elected for an 8-year term and there are 15 total judges.  Elections are partisan.
