Ooh. Pressure. 
They’d better give in or they risk finding themselves on the receiving end of absolutely nothing at all.
Heaven forbid that the Supreme Court has rules governing conduct and ethics. >

Some Republican Supreme Court Justices are now ignoring laws that are already on the books. They need to be impeached. We don't have a law problem so we don't need more laws or rules. We have criminal justices who believe they are paid political activists beholden only to the interests of their party and its richest contributors. >

or what? Nothing? I think the answer is nothing.
sigh. >

Congress could impose it, if the GOP wasn't so corrupt >


The justices say they follow the spirit of the code, introduced in 1973, but they have never formally adopted one of their own. There is also no procedure that allows for complaints to be investigated short of the drastic step of impeachment.
Pressure has repeatedly come from Congress, with Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., set to re-introduce legislation on Thursday that would require the justices to adopt a code. Similar efforts in recent years have failed.
"It’s a simple, nonpartisan solution to increase transparency, enforce accountability, and start to rebuild public confidence in the court," Murphy said in a statement.
The bill, like previous versions, would task the Judicial Conference of the United States, the policymaking body for federal courts, with issuing within a year of enactment a code of conduct applying to Supreme Court justices. It also contains a new provision that would authorize an ethics investigations lawyer who would have the power to enforce the code.

Ooh, a sensible and quick way to reestablish trust in the judicial system.  It'll never get out of the house sadly. >

For thee, not for me.
