"...Chase was charged with eight articles of impeachment, arising out of conduct that allegedly occurred while he served as a District Court judge, in cases in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia...."

I stand by my remark because the alleged conduct occurred BEFORE he became a Justice of the SCOTUS.

But he was impeached while he WAS a supreme, so the question of whether or not a precedent was ever set regarding the impeachment of a sitting Supreme Court Judge is still yes.
