Section VII-11: Salaries and expenses - Retirement.

  (a)  Judges and Supreme Court Justices shall receive for their
services salaries provided by statute.  The salaries of Judges
and Justices shall not be diminished, but may be increased during
their respective terms of office.  Judicial officers may be paid
such actual and necessary expenses as may be provided by statute.
All basic salaries and expenses, or any portion thereof, of
judges of District Courts shall be paid by the State unless
otherwise provided by Statute with such additional salaries as
may be provided by statute to be paid by the respective districts
or counties.
  (b)  No Justices or Judges, except those of Municipal Courts,
shall engage in the practice of law nor hold any other office or
position of profit under the United States or this State or any
municipal corporation or political subdivision of this State, nor
shall hold office in any political party.  Provided that the
Judges of the Court on the Judiciary, the Court of Tax Review and
the Court of Bank Review and the Judges of any other such Special
Courts may serve in such capacities in addition to their other
judicial office. Compensation for service in the National Guard
or the armed forces of the United States for such periods of time
as may be determined by rules of the Supreme Court shall not be
deemed "profit".
  (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article relating to
terms of office, the Legislature may provide by statute for a
maximum age qualification for election or appointment to office
and for the retirement of Justices and Judges automatically at a
prescribed age or both.  The compensation, age of retirement and
after a certain number of years of service, or procedure for
retirement shall be prescribed by statute.  Any retired Justice
or Judge may, in the discretion of the Supreme Court, be assigned
to Judicial service.  The compensation for such service shall be
that to which the Justice or Judge is entitled in accordance with
benefits as provided by statute.
