Associate Justice of the US Supreme Court

An Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court is one of the nine judges on the highest court in the United States. They help interpret laws, resolve legal disputes, and ensure justice under the Constitution. Justices are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Each justice’s role is to hear cases, debate legal issues, and write opinions that influence American law and society. While the Chief Justice leads the Court, Associate Justices contribute equally to decisions, shaping the legal landscape through their rulings on important cases that affect citizens’ rights and government actions.
