The decision revives a lawsuit filed by 94 women who said their OB-GYN sexually abused them. Previously, a lower court determined that the actions they alleged had to be treated as medical malpractice.

Immunity.
I suppose that literally answers my question. Lol
Yeah, it’s almost impossible to remove a sitting judge. For federal judges, they have lifetime appointments and the only option to remove them is impeachment. Only 15 federal judges have been impeached, 8 being convicted in the US history. State judges are elected, and only 18 states have a recall process, which is lengthy and heavily stacked in the judge’s favor. So the only reasonable way to remove them is to elect someone else, when their term ends.
And they have absolute immunity for all judicial actions.
