The Supreme Court is located in the Temple of Justice Building on Olympia’s Capitol Campus.
The Court was established in 1854 as the final arbiter of the law in the state of Washington. The
Court has nine justices who serve six-year terms. Justices are chosen by non-partisan judicial
ballot in the general election each even-numbered year. As the state’s “court of last resort,” the
Court reviews more than 1,000 cases each year. The Court has almost total discretion in
deciding which cases it will hear, although it automatically reviews those cases involving the
death penalty.
The Court is also responsible for administering the state’s entire judicial system. The Court
establishes the rules of operation for District, Municipal, Superior and Appellate courts and
governs the admission to practice and conduct of attorneys and judges. More than 200 courts
with 2,500 judicial and court personnel comprise the Washington State Court System.
The Court employs approximately 64 people and has a biennial budget of approximately
$12.5 million. Revenues collected by the Court are from filing fees and assessed fees.
