LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — An all-female panel of the Nebraska Court of Appeals has heard oral arguments for the first time in state history.

The three-judge panel met for oral arguments last week at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. Judges Frankie Moore, Francie Riedmann and Riko Bishop heard several cases and then took questions from students.

Riedmann and Bishop were appointed by Gov. Dave Heineman in 2013. Moore, the chief judge of the appellate court, was appointed by former Gov. Mike Johanns in 2000.

The Court of Appeals is made up of three women and three men.
