Jimmy Carter, who was in office from 1977-1981, never had an opportunity to nominate a US Supreme Court justice.
A US president cannot hold two government positions at the same time, nor can any other federal government official. Only one former US President has gone on to serve on the Supreme Court: William Howard Taft was Chief Justice from 1921-1930.
The Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court is chosen by the President of the United States and confirmed by the Senate. There is no specific constitutional requirement for the selection of the Chief Justice, but historically, the President has chosen the most senior member of the Court. Once confirmed, the Chief Justice serves in that role for life or until they choose to retire.
Oh, dude, let me drop some knowledge on you. So, there are actually six US Presidents who didn't appoint a justice to the Supreme Court. Those lucky fellas are William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Andrew Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and - brace yourself - Joe Biden. Looks like they missed out on that fun task, huh?
You did not include the names of "which men". We can't answer without that information.
US Supreme Court justices are called "Justice [Last name]." The Associate Justices were formerly referred to as Mr. Justice [Last name], but this tradition was abandoned when Justice Sandra Day O'Connor joined the Court, in deference to gender neutrality.Trial Court judges are usually addressed as "Your Honor," without benefit of last name. This is a sign of courtesy and respect, not a title.
The President does not have the power to dismiss Supreme Court Justices. Jefferson attempted in 1805 to secure the impeachment and removal of Justice Samuel Chase, but without success.

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.
No. President Roosevelt wrote a plan that would allow him to appoint one new justice for each current justice over the age of 70.5 years old, up to a maximum of six additional justices, which would expand the size of the Supreme Court from nine to fifteen. Congress understood the President's idea was unconstitutional, so they refused to pass the legislation. Eventually, the old members of the Supreme Court began retiring and passing away, so Roosevelt was able to appoint eight replacements without adding to the size of the Court.
PA Supreme Court Justice Gibson made that statement in an opinion in 1846 .
Federal are often elected by voters or appointed by the president without approval of congress. Supreme Court judges are appointed with approval of congress and are on the court until they retire, die, or impeached.

In New Jersey, a Supreme Court justice (as well as any Superior Court judge) is appointed for an initial seven year term. After that the justice (judge) becomes eligible for reappointment. If reappointed, the justice/judge serves until mandatory retirement age of 70 without further reappointment.
