Supreme Court justices hold office "during good behavior," which means they are appointed for life unless they commit an impeachable offense. Justices remain on the Court until they retire, resign or die.

An appointment to the United States Supreme Court is for life; however, justices can be impeached for bad behavior, just as any other government official can be.

Some states have fixed terms for Supreme Court justices; for example, California.
