(4) The total represents the overall number of confirmations rather than judges. As a result, individual judges may be counted more than once.

For example, President Reagan appointed Antonin Scalia to the U.S. Court of Appeals in 1982 and to the Supreme Court in 1986. Both appointments are included in the confirmations totals.

In addition, the counts for the USCFC and the territorial courts include judges reappointed after their terms expired.
