Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answe is: A federal court of appeals judge.

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because, according to U.S., laws, both state court judges and federal judges, both court of appeals´ judges and Supreme Court judges can only be removed, or dismissed from office, by the state legislature, in case of a state judge, and Congress, in case of federal judges. As such, the correct process is that in order for a federal judge of a court of appeals, or a Supreme Court judge, to be removed, impeachment must take place and later, removal will only happen when a 2/3rds vote on both the House of Representative, and the Senate, is reached.
