Answer:

It's called the impeachment process.

Step-by-step explanation:

- To start, the house of representatives called for the removal after obtaining enough evidence to proof the judge's misdemeanor.

- After that, the case will be brought to Senate. Senate will review the case and conduct their own trial. The judge would be brought over to the rooms full of senates and will receive a lot of questioning.

- When the trial is over, the Senate will conduct a vote. The judge will be removed from the office if 2/3 of the total senates voted for the removal.
