Any judge who is or becomes physically or mentally incapacitated to perform his duties shall be retired, and he shall be paid as in the case of retirement at the age of seventy years, irrespective of his age at retirement, but in no event less than two-thirds of his pay. His incapacity shall be made to appear by a certificate which shall be filed with the governor and secretary of state. In the case of a judge of the supreme court, the courts of appeal, district courts of three or more judges, and city courts of three or more judges, this certificate shall be executed by a majority of the other members of the court of which he is a member. In all other cases, this certificate of incapacity shall be signed by two competent physicians and approved by a majority of the supreme court.
