 Antonin Scalia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 2004, Scalia wrote a dissenting opinion that the President's detention of enemy combatants was an unconstitutional suspension of the writ of habeas corpus; the only other member of the court to share that view was John Paul Stevens, one the Court's more liberal justices.
Scalia is considered the Court's leading proponent of constitutional originalism.
Scalia has proved to be what some call "libertarian" in certain cases; for instance, in a 5-4 ruling, Scalia found that the government could not use a thermal imaging device to scan one's home unless there was a warrant.
