  • Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States are the members of the Supreme Court of the United States other than the Chief Justice of the United States. The number of Associate Justices is determined by the United States Congress and is currently set at eight by the Judiciary Act of 1869. Associate Justices, like the Chief Justice, are nominated by the President of the United States and are confirmed by the United States Senate by majority vote. This is provided for in Article II of the Constitution, which states that the President "shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint... Judges of the supreme Court. " Article III of the Constitution specifies that Associate Justices, and all other United States federal judges "shall hold their Offices during good Behavior. " This language means that the appointments are effectively for life, ending only when a Justice dies in office, retires, or is removed from office following impeachment by the House of Representatives and conviction by the Senate. Each of the Justices of the Supreme Court has a single vote in deciding the cases argued before it; the Chief Justice's vote counts no more than that of any other Justice. However, in drafting opinions, the Chief Justice enjoys additional influence in case disposition if in the majority through his power to assign who writes the opinion. Otherwise, the senior justice in the majority assigns the writing of a decision. Furthermore, the Chief Justice leads the discussion of the case among the justices. The Chief Justice has certain administrative responsibilities that the other Justices do not and is paid slightly more ($223,500 per year for the Chief Justice and $213,900 per year for each Associate Justice). Associate Justices have seniority by order of appointment, although the Chief Justice is always considered to be the most senior. If two justices are appointed on the same day, the older is designated the senior Justice of the two. Currently, the senior Associate Justice is Antonin Scalia. By tradition, when the Justices are in conference deliberating the outcome of cases before the Court, the justices state their views in order of seniority. If there is a knock at their conference room door, the junior justice (who sits closest to the door) must answer it. The current junior justice is Elena Kagan. Under 28 USC 3, when the Chief Justice is unable to discharge his functions, or that office is vacant, his duties are carried out by the most senior Associate Justice until the disability or the vacancy ends. The current Associate Justices are (in order of seniority): Antonin Scalia Anthony Kennedy Clarence Thomas Ruth Bader Ginsburg Stephen Breyer Samuel Alito Sonia Sotomayor Elena Kagan
  • Un juez asociado de la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos (en inglés, Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States) es uno de los miembros que componen la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos. Así, la Corte Suprema esta compuesta por el juez presidente (Chief Justice) y por los jueces asociados. El número de jueces asociados es determinado por el Congreso de los Estados Unidos y está compuesto actualmente de ocho miembros, como se fijó en el Acta Judicial de 1869 (Judiciary Act of 1869). Los jueces asociados son nominados por el presidente de los Estados Unidos. Luego la nominación pasa a manos del Senado de los Estados Unidos para ser ratificada. Si es ratificada por el Senado, el candidato es electo de por vida, (al igual que otros jueces federales) y solo puede ser removido por fallecimiento, renuncia o por impeachment. Cada uno de los jueces de la Corte Suprema cuenta con un voto en la decisión de los casos alegados frente a ellos; El voto del juez presidente es igualitario al de los jueces asociados. Sin embargo, en la redacción de los fallos, el juez presidente tiene una mayor influencia debido a su atribución de designar a la persona que redactará el fallo en aquellos casos en que el juez presidente forma parte del voto de la mayoría. De otra forma, el juez asociado de mayor antigüedad que es parte de la mayoría es quien posee la facultad de designar al Juez que redactará el fallo. En cuanto a las atribuciones del juez presidente, es este quien lleva las discusiones en el conocimiento de los casos, demás de poseer responsabilidades administrativas que los otros jueces no poseen, siendo el salario del juez presidente mayor que el de los otros . Los actuales jueces asociados son (por orden de antigüedad): Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito, Sonia Sotomayor y Elena Kagan.

  • 美國最高法院大法官是美國最高法院首席大法官之外的成員。大法官的數目由美國國會決定，目前根據1869年司法法。 最高法院大法官，如同首席大法官一樣，都由美國總統所提名，並經美國參議院多數表決贊同後方可任命。這是由美國憲法所規定：「總統有权提名，并于取得参议院的意见和同意后，任命... 最高法院的法官。」 美國憲法第三條規定，大法官和低级法院的法官，若尽忠职守，应继续任职，意味著當每位大法官獲得任命後，他將會終身任職，任期結束除非是他去世、自行退休，或被眾議院彈劾及參議院定罪才會被撤銷職務。 每位大法官在案件表決時均只能投下一票，首席大法官沒有額外的投票權。而在表決後起草意見書時候，首席大法官如果在投票的多數方，他可以指定多數方中的一位大法官撰寫意見書，或自己寫。如果首席大法官在少數方，則由多數方中的最資深大法官來分配意見書。此外，會議討論進程由首席大法官所帶領，他並具有一定其他法官沒有的行政權力。他的工資比大法官多一點，$217,400美元比$208,100美元。截至2009年 (2009-Missing required parameter 1=month!)). 大法官的次序是根據資歷而排列，雖然首席大法官常被認為是最資深的大法官。如果同一天有兩名法官獲委任，較年長的成為資深大法官。目前，資深大法官是安東寧·斯卡利亞。按照傳統，大法官在討論會議上按照資歷而討論案件時，若有人敲門，將由資歷最淺的大法官（坐在靠門位置）應門。 若首席大法官無法履行職責或席位空缺，他的職務將暫時由資深大法官代理，直到空缺結束。
