Supreme Court term limits.

This reminds me of the Constitutional Court of the Italian Republic. "The Constitutional Court is composed of 15 judges for the term of service of nine years: 5 appointed by the President, 5 elected by the Parliament of Italy and 5 elected by the ordinary and administrative supreme courts." However, because some judges are "elected by the ordinary and administrative supreme courts", this seemingly means that every judge gets a permanent right to elect judges, unless they are removed from office. There are also other courts that the Constitution of the Italian Republic describes, so there might be some court of the Italian Republic that has 9 justices with no term limits, but it probably wouldn't have as much power at least!

Alternatively, I've had a thought in the past that it might be good for the Supreme Court of the United States to have more justices. If there were 11 or 23 or 35 justices, then we wouldn't have to worry about the particular people involved as much as we do now, since it'd probably be more likely that the majority of justices would be more similar to the average person.
