The Galactic Court, sometimes called the High Court, was the highest judicial body in the Galactic Union, and led the federal judiciary. Like the Old Republic's Supreme Court, it was housed in the Galactic Courts of Justice Building on Coruscant. The court consisted of twelve justices, who are nominated by the Supreme Chancellor and confirmed via the "Senate Judiciary Conformation Committee", serve a life term which only expires upon death, resignation, or conviction on impeachment.

  • The Galactic Court, sometimes called the High Court, was the highest judicial body in the Galactic Union, and led the federal judiciary. Like the Old Republic's Supreme Court, it was housed in the Galactic Courts of Justice Building on Coruscant. The court consisted of twelve justices, who are nominated by the Supreme Chancellor and confirmed via the "Senate Judiciary Conformation Committee", serve a life term which only expires upon death, resignation, or conviction on impeachment. Like in the Old Republic, the Galactic Court served as a 'court of last resort' and as a determiner of constitutional legality. It was known to follow the concept of double jeopardy, unlike that of the Old Republic's Supreme Court, which could try the same case multiple times.
