Pauline Newman is facing scrutiny over her capability as a judge, stirring debate about the often unquestioned lifetime appointment of Article III judges. During oral arguments, discussions diverged towards hypothetical scenarios of judges unable to perform duties, even though Newman has effectively performed her role, evidenced by a dissent affirmed by the Supreme Court. Judge Patricia A. Millett and others raised concerns about the implications of labeling a judge with a disability as a criminal following impeachment, challenging the fairness and validity of such a process.
Your theory leaves no room at all... This is the statute not just about misconduct, but about disability... lose everything.
The notion that Congress would say, 'Well, if someone has a disability... we're going to declare them a criminal'... seems, to me, an extraordinary proposition.
