This Power is split between two branches. Neither can act without the other in terms of Supreme Court Justices.

When a Supreme Court Justice either retires;, steps down;, becomes ineligible for public office;, or dies, the President (Executive Branch) has the authority to nominate a potential replacement. However, the President does not have the power to confirm the appointment.

That Power lies with the Legislative Branch, specifically, the Senate.
