Congratulations to our P.A.D. Brother, Associate Justice Stephen Breyer

Congratulations to our P.A.D. Brother, Associate Justice Stephen Breyer, on the announcement of his retirement from the U.S. Supreme Court

Confirmed to his position on July 29, 1994, Justice Breyer will have served the U.S. Supreme Court for 28 years upon his retirement this October. He was the second-longest-serving junior justice in the history of the Court and, since Ginsburg's death in September 2020, Breyer has been the oldest incumbent Supreme Court Justice.

Justice Breyer was honorarily initiated on P.A.D. Day at the U.S. Supreme Court on June 3, 1996 into Phi Alpha Delta’s Staples Chapter of Washington and Lee University School of Law. We are thankful for his years visiting our Supreme Court bar admission group and proud of his service to our country.
