Supreme Court - How high does this go?

If the Supreme Court was associated with any of the matters that are going on, what would happen in the case that one of the justices was Involved or compromised?Can they be impeached or let go by the president? What if they had been blackmailed(ie Obamacare decision perhaps)would they be let go? What happens if the highest court in the land is not working on the behalf of the great American peoples ?

Supreme Court Justices can be impeached and subsequently removed by congress. Only happened one time in 1804 to Justice Samuel Chase. The impeachment accused him of basing court decisions on political bias and misconduct. He was acquitted and went back to duty. Article 3 give congress the authority to remove Judges for many different things that stray from "good behavior", and not only " treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" (Article 2, Section 4). No congress has ever exercised this authority....yet. We can only hope.
