U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
An appeals court: it hears appeals from the federal trial courts in its region. 11 active judges and 5 on senior status (semi-retired, still hearing some cases), per the Federal Judicial Center.
No left–right score is calculated for lower-court judges. The appointing president is shown instead (a common, but rough, signal).
