N.D. Cent. Code § 44-09-02
Current through 2024 Legislative Session
The sole power of impeachment is vested in the house of representatives. A concurrence of a majority of all members is necessary to the exercise thereof. All impeachments must be tried by the senate sitting for that purpose, and the senators must be upon oath or affirmation to do justice according to law and the evidence. When the governor or lieutenant governor is on trial, the chief justice of the supreme court shall preside, or if the chief justice is disqualified or unable to preside, then some other judge of said court must be selected by the senate. No person may be convicted without the concurrence of two-thirds of the senators elected.
