Answer:

The answer is impeachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the act of formally accuse an elected official of wrongdoing or misconducting. It is a process by which a legislature brings charges against a civil officer of government for crimes alleged to have been committed, analogous to the bringing of an indictment by a grand jury.
