Answer:

Judges and justices serve no fixed term

Step-by-step explanation:

— they serve until their death, retirement, or conviction by the Senate. By design, this insulates them from the temporary passions of the public, and allows them to apply the law with only justice in mind, and not electoral or political concerns.

Answer:

There is no fixed tenure for federal judges. They can serve for as long as they don't wish to resign or are impeached. Some judges serve until they die.

Explanation:

  • The United States Constitution through Article III clarifies that there would not be a fixed tenure for the federal judges or for their post, age of retirement would not be prescribed.
  • The federal judges are given the concession to hold the position for as long as they want.
