ten districts into which the United States is divided. Each Circuit
Court of Appeals consists of from three to five circuit judges and one
of the Justices of the United States Supreme Court. The latter, how-
ever, never sits in the trial of cases. All cases are heard and decided
by the Circuit Judges sitting as a body in the city in which the head-
quarters of the court are located. The headquarters of the Seventh
Judicial Circuit is in Chicago. Circuit judges are paid $12,500 per
year.
