What did Judge Antonin Scalia say about judges and the law?

0

Scalia has said this about judges and the law: “This complete separation of the judiciary from the enterprise of “representative government” might have some truth in those countries where judges neither make law themselves nor set aside the laws enacted by the legislature. It is not a true picture of the American system. Not only do state-court judges possess the power to “make” common law, but they have the immense power to shape the States’ constitutions as well.” Sources: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/05/28/antonin-scalia-judges-mak_n_208531.

Justice Scalia said that one of the duties of judges could possibly be interpreted as making law among other things.
