### Process:
Once every 10 years the current membership of the Philosopher Jury may nominate any number of **eligible** candidates to join the Philosopher Jury. The legislature shall then vote on each of the nominated candidates. Finally, a popular vote shall be used to determine which of the candidates shall be appointed to the Philosopher Jury.
Only one candidate may join the Philosopher Jury per 10 year period. Once every 10 years the current membership of the Philosopher Jury **may** nominate at least two **eligible** candidates to join the Philosopher Jury.
Only one candidate may join the Philosopher Jury per 10 year period.
The legislature shall then vote on each of the nominees, approving or rejecting each one to narrow down the list of nominees. Should the legislature's voting not result in at least two approved nominees, then the rejected nominees who had the most favourable results in the legislature's vote shall automatically be considered to have been approved. A minimum of two nominees **shall** always pass this nomination process.
Finally, a popular vote shall be used to determine which of the remaining approved nominees shall be appointed to the Philosopher Jury.
### Minimum membership:
The above limitation notwithstanding: the Philosopher Jury's membership shall never fall below 1/3 of the total number of non-philosopher jurors used in Judicial Review cases. When the number of philosopher jurors is fewer than 1/3 of the total number of non-philosopher jurors, then the Philosopher Jury shall nominate new members until the number reaches at least 1/3 of the total number of non-philosopher jurors. E.g, if legislation requires 6 ordinary jurors and 6 originalist jurors, then the number of philosopher jurors shall never be allowed fall below 4.
The 10-year limit notwithstanding: the Philosopher Jury's membership shall never fall below 1/3 of the total number of non-philosopher jurors used in Judicial Review cases. When the number of philosopher jurors is fewer than 1/3 of the legislatively defined total number of non-philosopher jurors, then the Philosopher Jury shall initiate the nomination process repeatedly until the sum of their membership reaches at least 1/3 of the total number of non-philosopher jurors. E.g, if legislation requires 6 ordinary jurors and 6 originalist jurors, then the number of philosopher jurors shall never be allowed fall below 4.
