description The author states that in recent years there has been an unprecedented number of instances in which federal judges have been accused of criminal behaviour and other forms of misconduct. This raises major concerns regarding the scope and enforcement of canons of conduct for members of the judicial branch. He maintains that avenues for judicial independence must also be considered in relation to monitoring judicial conduct. He examines the problems associated with judicial misconduct and suggests a system of judicial self-regulation unencumbered by any form of congressional interference.
