“Counsel, there is so much that is not in the Constitution,” #JusticeSotomayor said. “Including the fact that we have the last word, Marbury v. Madison. There is not anything in the Constitution that says that… the Supreme Court is the last word on what the Constitution means.”
“It’s totally novel at that time.”
Sotomayor added that, in Casey & in Roe, the Court said there is “inherent in our structure, that there are certain personal decisions that belong to individuals & the states can’t intrude on them.”
