Explanation:

The Arizona Supreme Court is the highest court in the legal system of the state of Arizona. It consists of five judges appointed by the Governor of Arizona from among the candidates proposed by a commission composed of representatives of both major political parties. Judges must then obtain the approval of all state citizens expressed in a referendum. The first referendum on a given judge should take place two years after his appointment, and then every six years. The term of office of a judge expires when he reaches the age of 70 or as a result of a negative referendum on his case.
