Heck, even JackDawson had come around to the idea the last I mentioned it to him on here. -- nm - znufrii needs to cancel his gym membership Sep 23, 09:58 1

I mean, it still leaves open the question of what happens if one dies, is incapacitated, impeached or retires prior to the end of their term, but that - pmb Sep 23, 09:27 4
- I think it’s the same process as any other federal position. Appoint someone else to fill out the term. - spamlet Sep 23, 10:11
- I would hope someone wouldn't retire in the middle of a two-year appointment. - the wrong element, bad guy Sep 23, 10:06 1
  - It would be an 18 year term, they're just staggered so a new justice is appointed every 2 years as one rolls off. -- nm - pmb Sep 23, 10:32
- Solution to that is justices would still sit on the court as justice emeritus, but any case is heard by only the nine most junior members. Also works for recusals. -- (edited) - znufrii needs to cancel his gym membership Sep 23, 09:50
