Read a random definition: balloon mortgage

A quick definition of Compensation Clause:

A compensation clause is a part of the U.S. Constitution that says federal judges must be paid for their work. This means that they receive a salary for their job.

A more thorough explanation:

The Compensation Clause is a provision in the United States Constitution that ensures federal judges are paid for their services. It is found in Article III, Section 1, Clause 2 of the Constitution.

For example, if a federal judge presides over a case, they are entitled to receive compensation for their time and effort. This compensation is necessary to ensure that judges are not influenced by outside factors and can make impartial decisions.

The Compensation Clause is an important part of the Constitution because it helps to maintain the independence of the judiciary. Without it, judges might be tempted to accept bribes or other forms of compensation in exchange for favorable rulings.
