Section VIII-1: Officers subject to impeachment - Grounds - Suspension from office upon felony conviction - Reinstatement - Temporary judges.

  The Governor and other elective state officers, including the
Justices of the Supreme Court, shall be liable and subject to
impeachment for wilful neglect of duty, corruption in office,
habitual drunkenness, incompetency, or any offense involving
moral turpitude committed while in office.  All elected state
officers, including Justices of the Supreme Court and Judges of
the Court of Criminal Appeals, shall be automatically suspended
from office upon their being declared guilty of a felony by a
court of competent jurisdiction and their pay and allowances,
otherwise payable to such official, shall be withheld during the
period of such suspension. In the event such verdict of guilty is
reversed by a court of competent jurisdiction on appeal, such
accumulated pay and allowances which have been withheld shall be
paid to such official and he shall be automatically reinstated in
office to serve the remaining part of the term for which he was
elected.  Such official shall not be entitled to any pay or
allowances for a period of time after the term of office would
otherwise have expired and he shall not be entitled to
reinstatement in office after the expiration of the term for
which he was elected.  Whenever any Justice of the Supreme Court
or Judge of the Court of Criminal Appeals is suspended by reasons
of this section, the Governor shall be authorized to appoint a
temporary Justice or Judge to serve during the period of such
suspension and such temporary Justice or Judge shall be paid for
his services the compensation allowed for such regular Justice or
Judge.
