It may not be a contract persay, but it does seem to support the idea that some amount of due process is required. I’d agree that there should be some option to more rapidly suspend a judge, but the constitution you quote says she gets a hearing before dismissal.
I wasn’t really arguing that they couldn’t dismiss them, just that the dismissal of an elected official being mediated by employment law is… an interesting approach.
This judge is not an elected official.
She was appointed but has to be voted for every 4 years.
No, she doesn’t. She is a magistrate judge, and that’s an appointed position.
