Law prof Seton Hall, Brian Sheppard wants Biden to buy out Supreme Court justices, send them into retirement 'The sum should be in the millions

There's little doubt that there have been cases in America's history of justice being "bought," literally a court result or judge's decision coming as a direct result of a cash payment.

Those cases are illegal under bribery laws and in violation of literally every judicial ethics standard.

But now a law professor at Seton Hall, Brian Sheppard, is suggesting a variation of that strategy be escalated to the highest court in the land. He's suggesting that a president, Joe Biden for example, could change the court's makeup, and appoint his own justices, by creating openings through the retirements of sitting justices.

Retirements incentivized by huge cash payments.



It is at the Hill that Sheppard explained, "Congress should offer justices buyouts for early retirement."

"Buyouts are optional and frequently large payments contingent upon retirement or resignation," he said. "During economic crises, they are a common, legal and effective means for companies to maintain profitability. But governments facing budget crunches use them too. Congress has empowered federal agencies to offer buyouts, which the Office of Personnel Management praises for bringing 'needed organizational change with minimal disruption to the work force.'"

He, in fact, suggested, it is now that "the Supreme Court needs some organizational change of its own."

And the system right now doesn't help.
