Ruth Bader Ginsburg Case

Decent Essays
I admire Ruth Bader Ginsburg Supreme Court Justice; What Ginsburg did was bold. She fed a significant influence to the political audience. Her wisdom in policy makes her most qualified to express concerns and or judgment towards any candidate running for president. However, she is not above the law. Political involved behavior is a violation of the U.S code of conduct for judges, I also understand that. However, in spite Ginsburg made this decision because she knew her expertise opinion would affect the choice of the People for the better outcome. I would have done the same thing, I would have released similar statement about Donald trump, aggressively and publicly because I understand the harmful effect he may cause in the Unites States Government

    Justice Elena Kagan has decided to withdraw from hearing the case as it conflicts with her personal work involvement. Kagan recused herself from the case back in 2013 because she worked with the case prior, so she already has an established point of view that prevents her from making a just decision. That leaves eight justices making the decision. Justices tend to vote in a fashion that support their party lines. Conservative justices tend to vote more conservatively, and liberal justices tend to vote more liberally.…

    I believe that these two justices’ jurisprudence, or philosophy of law, is shaped by their political ideologies. This is not to say, however, that I believe that the two justices’ political ideologies affect their ability to come to objective decisions since ultimately, their most important task is to remain impartial. The two SCOTUS justices are on the opposite ends of the ideological spectrum. In addition to their opposite ideologies, the pair has two completely different philosophies of law and therefore, vary in their methods of interpretation. Justice Breyer’s political alignment is more towards the liberal side of the court.…
