Process of Removal of judges of the Supreme Court : Generally, the judge of the Supreme Court can stay in office till the age of 65. Before this, a judge himself can give resignation. Apart from this, on the basis of proven misconduct or inability, the parliament can remove any judge of the Supreme Court and the High Court from his post by impeachment. Although, it is very difficult to remove the judges of the Supreme Court and High Court from their office. Acceptance of a special majority of parliament on the charge against the judge is necessary. If both the houses of the parliament have ratified separately by two-thirds majority of their total members to disqualify or disproportionate to any of the judges, then the judge will have to withdraw from his post by order of the President of India.
