If a federal judge refuses to resign, the only way to legally remove him/her from his/her position is for the U.S. House of Representatives to formally charge the judge with wrongdoing (that action by the House is what's known as impeachment), after which the U.S. Senate puts the judge on trial. After both sides have rested their cases, every Senator votes either guilty or not guilty. If at least two thirds of the Senators vote guilty, the judge is removed from the bench; otherwise he/she is acquitted.
To date, fifteen judges or justices have been impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives, five during the 19th century, eight during the 20th century, and two so far in the 21st century. Of the fifteen, eight were removed, four were acquited, and three resigned before their trials came to a vote.
