What it the terms for the supreme court?
I believe you are asking what is the term for a Supreme Court Justice? So I will answer this question. The term of service for a Supreme Court Justice is lifetime. They cannot be voted out except by impeachment. This is what makes them so powerful and also allows them make decisions based on law and not party loyalty. There is also no set number of Justices. The first was the Honorable Justice Marshall, (that is how they are called not that they are honorable). He held office by himself. Later they added two more and so one until the 1930's when FDR in order to get the rules he wanted brought the total of Justices to nine.
