U.S. Supreme Court Justice

A U.S. Supreme Court Justice is a highly qualified judge appointed to serve on the nation's highest court. They interpret and apply the Constitution and federal laws, making decisions on cases that can affect laws, rights, and the government. Justices are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, serving for life or until they choose to retire. Their rulings shape important legal principles and ensure laws comply with the Constitution. They act independently, providing the final authority on legal disputes related to federal law and constitutional issues.
