Judicial Values

Alabamians know they can count on Supreme Court Justice Sarah Stewart to strictly construe the law, never legislate from the bench, and enforce the law justly.

 

“I am humbled by and take seriously the faith Alabama citizens placed in me by electing me to the trial court bench three times and then to the highest court in our State in 2018. I work daily to ensure the law is applied justly and consistently.  I have done my best to serve Alabama with honor and integrity and hope to have the privilege to continue to serve in the role as Chief Justice.”

 

“It is important for a justice to have strongly developed judicial values. My record reflects my conservative approach to dispensing justice impartially, ensuring Alabama’s body of jurisprudence evolves in strict accordance with conservative principles. My work as a Justice speaks for itself - I will never legislate from the bench and I will always fiercely defend your constitutional rights.”
