Abstract:
Article IV approved in 1962 called for a statewide court system consisting of the Appellate (Supreme Court), the Superior Court, and the District Court. To relieve the Supreme Court of all responsibilities for appeals, voters approved the adoption of an intermediate Court of Appeals in 1965. The court consisted of five judges chosen by the voters and one announced Chief Judge appointed by the Chief Justice.
