Constitutional courts are those established under Article III of the Constitution. These federal judges and Supreme Court justices are appointed "during good behavior," which means "for life," unless the judge/justice commits an impeachable offense and is removed from office involuntarily.

The Article III (constitutional courts) comprise the Judicial Branch of government, and include only the following:

  • US District Courts
  • US Court of International Trade
  • US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts
  • Supreme Court of the United States

Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution reads, in part: "The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour..."

Yes. In the United States, constitutional court (also called Article III courts) judges and justices are appointed by the President with the approval of the Senate. The constitutional courts are the US District Courts, US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts, US Court of International Trade, and the Supreme Court of the United States.

A federal judge of the Constitutional Courts can serve a lifetime sentence once they are appointed to their position. However, a federal judge can be removed, impeached, or convicted forcing them to give up their position on the bench.
