Judicial Philosophy (Max 250 words)

We need judges like Justice Antonin Scalia that will uphold the rule of law and not legislate from the bench. While Justice Scalia has passed away, he remains the justice that I most respect because he ardently believed in strict constitutional interpretation as opposed to viewing the Constitution as an evolving document subject to the social and political currents of the times. Justice Scalia speaking at SMU in 2013, unequivocally declared that the “Constitution is not a living document.” He said, “It is dead, dead, dead.” I agree with Justice Scalia.
