"Six judge members are appointed by the supreme court: two from the court of appeals, two from the superior court, one from a justice court, and one from a municipal court. Two attorney members are appointed by the board of governors of the State Bar of Arizona. Three public members, who cannot be attorneys or active or retired judges, are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the state senate."
