Federal judges are appointed for life. The term for a judge in a state court will vary from state to state and court to court. For example, in my state the circuit court judges are appointed for 10 year terms, district court & family court judges get 6 year terms. We also have per diem judges (basically, substitute judges who get called in for a day or two now and then) in the district & family court who get appointed for two terms.
A. Limit the terms of office of all members of the federal judiciary to 3 year terms, not to exceed 2 consecutive terms. Since the current U.S. Supreme Court consists of 9 members, the terms would be staggered so that each year, 3 seats on the Court would be up for appointment. B. Limit the powers of the federal judiciary so that it cannot nullify the will of the majority of the people.
