Pretty much every sentence in the Bloomberg Crypto Outlook from Sept 2021, linked below, turned out to be false. Did any of you three take part in writing that report, or similar ones?

He is dancing around the question because he is flat out wrong. District and Circuit judges aren’t compelled to take senior status. They can voluntarily but aren’t forced. Also the bit about congress defining the Justices’ powers is misleading. Congress can remove cases from SCOTUS’ jurisdiction. But Congress can’t set the terms of service (ie forced senior status) for the individual justices.

Yes. Article 3 judges are appointed for life or until they resign or are impeached. Forced senior status is a not one of those things. It is clever hand waving by OP.

Seniors status also doesn’t really make sense for SCOTUS because every justice hears every case (minus recusals). District and circuit judges obviously do not hear every case that comes through their respective districts or circuits, so they can be assigned reduced workloads.

You think that employers will just allow a 20% cut in working hours, somehow productivity will remain the same, and all of this will happen without pay cuts? How?
