Question

Only the chief justice can impeach current judges.


True

False

Answer 1

False. In the United States, impeachment of federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, is not solely the responsibility of the chief justice. The process involves the House of Representatives, which has the authority to impeach (bring charges against) judges, and the Senate, which conducts the trial and makes the decision to remove the judge from office. The chief justice of the United States presides over impeachment trials of the president but does not have a role in impeaching judges.
