In NY judges are elected and must also resign as soon as practical once they turn 70.

In Wisconsin judges are elected. Even our supreme court justices for 10 year terms.

Regnery: Marilyn Mosby's Disbarment Would Be A Fitting End to Her Politically-Motivated Prosecution of Baltimore Officers - Breitbart
The complaint calls for an investigation into Mosby’s conduct connected with her prosecution of the cases on several grounds, including:
- that she did not have probably cause to believe that there was sufficient admissible evidence to support a conviction of the officers;
- that she made public statements regarding the case which were false;
- that she improperly withheld evidence from the defense that was exculpatory;
- that she continued to prosecute cases after the judge assigned to hear the cases found insufficient evidence to support a conviction;
- that she engaged in conduct that was dishonest, fraudulent, deceitful and which misrepresented the facts in the case.

A judge dropped an assault charge Monday against a Baltimore police officer charged in the death of a black man injured in a police transport van.
Baltimore Circuit Court Judge Barry Williams dismissed the second-degree assault charge against Lt. Brian Rice, the fourth of six officers — three black, three white — to be tried in the 2015 death of Freddie Gray. After three trials, Williams has yet to rule that any of the officers committed crimes. Rice is the third officer to let Williams alone decide their fate.
Rice still faces charges of manslaughter, reckless endangerment and misconduct. One misconduct charge was dropped when the trial began last week.
Williams dropped the assault charge after the prosecution rested its case and Rice's lawyers asked for the judge to acquit him.

John Banzhaf, law professor, seeks disbarment of Baltimore prosecutors in Freddie Gray cases
Prosecutors of officers accused in Freddie Gray death face pressure for disbarment
Legal analysts ripped Baltimore prosecutors Monday over their handling of the Freddie Gray case, saying the prosecution should drop all charges against the three remaining police officers or risk more embarrassment in the courtroom.
What’s more, John Banzhaf, an activist law professor at George Washington University, said he would file a complaint Tuesday with the Maryland Attorney Grievance Commission calling for the disbarment of the lead prosecutors in the trials of the six police officers accused of wrongdoing in the 2015 arrest and death of the 25-year-old black man.
“It’s quite clear that the prosecution should not continue on,” said Barry Slotnick, a prominent defense lawyer who has followed the trials in the Gray case. “The prosecution in the next three cases should strongly make a suggestion in court — on the record — that these cases have not been proven and will not be proven and therefore they should be dismissed.”

(CNN)Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby is going from prosecutor to civil defendant in connection with the case of the death of Freddie Gray.
On Wednesday, Mosby announced that charges against three officers still facing trial were being dropped. Mosby gave only a statement, but had to leave without taking questions because five of the officers in the case have filed lawsuits against her.
