Éviter [durant bonne conduite], calque de l’anglais «during good behaviour». Cette expression signifie que le titulaire du poste pourra le conserver pendant toute la durée de son mandat, sauf faute grave pouvant justifier sa destitution. Plutôt qu’«occuper une charge» [durant bonne conduite], on dira «occuper une charge à titre inamovible»; de même, on parlera de l’«inamovibilité des juges» plutôt que de la «nomination des juges [pour bonne conduite]». Voir «bon plaisir» ci-dessous pour la nomination «à titre amovible». 5, record 1, French, - %C3%A0%20titre%20inamovible
