Catalan term or phrase: jurats

This is talking about women the Mexican legal system. Does this mean judges, panel of judges or jurists? Or perhaps another option?

En el màxim tribunal hi ha 13 homes i 3 dones ... Hi ha jurats, es treu una terna, s’envia al Congrés i el Congrés decideix

The highest court has 13 men and 3 women … there are judges, a short list is drawn up, it is sent to Congress and Congress makes a decision.”

English translation:panel of judges*

Explanation:
I think this is the sense here. "A panel of judges is proposed and a short list of three is drawn up. This is then sent to Congress for approval."
