Best Answer

Supreme Court Justices are appointed for life. They cannot have their membership on the Supreme Court revoke. This prevents politicians from being able to blackmail Supreme Court Justices by threatening to fire them. This helps ensure that Justices will not be pressured from outside forces.

Supreme Court Justices keep their position until they retire or die.
