About Antonin Scalia
American jurist
Antonin Scalia was an American jurist who served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1986 until his death in 2016. He became a leading figure on the Court’s conservative side, known for championing originalism and textualism. Scalia helped shape modern debates over constitutional interpretation and is widely linked with a larger originalist and textualist movement in American law. He has been described as among the most influential jurists of the twentieth century, and his name was later given to the Antonin Scalia Law School at George Mason University.
