		Established by Article III of the Constitution of the United States, the Court is made up of eight associated justices and one chief justice - all nominated to life terms by the president and confirmed by the Senate.

		Some justices will occasionally write a dissenting opinion for a case that was dropped or denied a hearing in order to make it clear that they are not affirming the lower courts decision by not taking the case.

	Constitutional Conflicts: The Constitution
		The conservative wing of the Court, for example, generally favors a restrictive interpretation of the federal commerce power (and therefore a broad view of states' rights), favors an expansive interpretation of the 11th Amendment, and rarely votes to overturn criminal convictions.
		Another way of dividing Supreme Court justices is between "judicial activists" (those who are relatively willing to invalidate acts of federal and state legislatures and executive branches) and "advocates of judicial restraint" (those who are more reluctant to use their judicial power to invalidate).
		Justices Scalia and Thomas, for example, are conservative activists while Justice William O. Douglas was a liberal judicial activist.
