Best Answer

The US Supreme Court (Judicial) and the houses of Congress (Legislative) are in two separate branches of the government; no one can occupy more than one office at a time.

If you are asking about how long a Supreme Court justice remains on the bench, however, the commission is for a lifetime. Justices serve until they die, resign, retire or are impeached.
