In the United States, for example, judges can be impeached by the House of Representatives, tried, and removed by the Senate. Judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts in India can be removed through an impeachment process initiated by Parliament.
Parliament doesn't have the authority to remove judges in other countries, such as the United Kingdom. Judges, on the other hand, can only be removed for cause, such as misconduct or incapacity, through a disciplinary process overseen by the Judicial Appointments and Conduct Ombudsman and the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office.
It is important to note that the power to remove judges is usually subject to strict legal and procedural safeguards to prevent it from being abused for political or other inappropriate reasons.
