Judges of the Eighth Circuit

Judges of the Eighth Circuit are federal judges who serve on the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. They review cases appealed from lower courts in eight states—Arkansas, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Their role is to interpret and apply federal laws and the Constitution, ensuring consistency and fairness in legal decisions. The Eighth Circuit panel typically consists of three judges who carefully examine legal arguments, evidence, and procedures before issuing rulings that can set important legal precedents within their jurisdiction.
