	United States Court of Appeals - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There currently are thirteen United States courts of appeals, although there are other tribunals (such as the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, which hears appeals in court-martial cases) that have "Court of Appeals" in their titles.
		Although the courts of appeals are frequently referred to as "circuit courts," they should not be confused with the historical United States circuit courts, which existed from 1789 to 1911 and were primarily trial courts.
		A court of appeals applies the law as it exists at the time of the appeal, otherwise it would be handing down decisions that were instantly obsolete, and this would be a waste of resources since such decisions could not be cited as precedent.

	No. 00-919: Stevenson v. United States - Opposition
		The judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces was entered on August 2, 2000.
		The court explained that the armed forces do not rely on servicemembers on the TDRL to carry out military missions and therefore do not need to be able to take actions necessary to preserve their health as they would for active duty servicemembers.
		United States, 512 U.S. 452, 457 n.* (1994) (noting that "[w]e have never had occasion to consider whether the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, or the attendant right to counsel during custodial interrogation, applies of its own force to the military").

		United States, 515 U. ___, this Court overturned a conviction that had been affirmed, before the secretarial appointments, by a Coast Guard Court of Military Review panel that included both civilian members, as it was conceded that the judges had not been validly appointed pursuant to the Appointments Clause.
		The Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces affirmed the convictions, relying on its holding on remand in Ryder that the Secretary's appointments were valid and cured the defect that had previously existed.
		Supervision of the work of Coast Guard Court of Criminal Appeals judges is divided between the General Counsel of the Department of Transportation (who is subordinate to the Secretary) and the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.

	No. 00-607: Gray v. United States - Opposition
		The court concluded that the government's basis for the challenge-that the member's responses to questions concerning the death penalty were equivocal-was race-neutral, and that "public confidence in the military justice system has not been undermined." Ibid.
		The court noted that, at the time of petitioner's trial, the CAAF had not yet held that Batson applied to courts-martial or that the defense made out a prima facie case of discrimination by showing that a single peremptory challenge was lodged against a court-martial member of the same minority race as the accused.
		United States, 483 U.S. The Fifth Amendment specifically exempts "cases arising in the land or naval forces" from the requirement of an indictment by a grand jury for serious crimes.
