When the president appoints judges to serve in federal courts, they can remain on the bench for how long they wish. According to the "good behavior" principle, the only exception exists if a Congressional impeachment takes place (which is very rare). The lifetime appointment has its pros and cons:

<u>CONS</u>
- Judges appointed for life might get comfortable and start creating their own laws from the bench.
- These judges under lifetime appointment are often subjected to bribes (political favors) and corruption.
