Article III of the Constitution specifies that justices "shall hold their offices during good behavior." That is to say, no numerical term limits are placed upon the offices of Chief Justice or Associate Justice, whereas the Constitution places specific term limits, stated in numbers of years,upon the offices of President and Vice-president, and members of Congress.
