And what of appointed officials, like Supreme Court justices?

I just had a look at the equivalent of the US suppreme court here, "Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen", and the officers of the court serve until retirement.

Seems resonable to me.

It is the same here. But they often decide to "retire" at death, i.e., lifelong tenure.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, forced retirement at the national retirement age?

[–] Echolynx@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Oh my bad, I misread earlier. Yeah, it should be forced, but here it is not.

I think SC justices should have terms. Make em long terms if you'd like but still limits. And again, no one over 65.
