These decisions were released with an 8-member Court; none were 4–4, so Alito would not have been the deciding vote in any of them if he had participated. Only three of these cases – <a href="/wiki/Garcetti_v._Ceballos" title="Garcetti v. Ceballos">Garcetti v. Ceballos</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hudson_v._Michigan" title="Hudson v. Michigan">Hudson v.

From the beginning of the <a href="/wiki/Rehnquist_Court" title="Rehnquist Court">Rehnquist Court</a> to the nomination of Justice <a href="/wiki/Elena_Kagan" title="Elena Kagan">Elena Kagan</a>, each new justice has been given a unanimous opinion to write as their first Supreme Court opinion; this practice is designed to help "break in" new justices so that each justice has at least one unanimous, uncontroversial opinion under their belt.<a href="#cite_note-60">[59]</a><a href="#cite_note-61">[60]</a> Alito wrote for a unanimous court in ordering a new trial for Bobby Lee Holmes due to South Carolina's rule that barred such evidence based on the strength of the prosecution's case, rather than on the relevance and strength of the defense evidence itself. His other majority opinions in his first term were in <a href="/wiki/Zedner_v._United_States" title="Zedner v. United States">Zedner v.

Murphy">Arlington Central School District Board of Education v. Murphy</a>. In his first term, Alito compiled a fairly conservative record. For example, in the three reargued cases (Garcetti v. Ceballos, Hudson v. Michigan and Kansas v. Marsh), Alito created a 5–4 majority by voting with the four other conservative Justices – <a href="/wiki/John_G._Roberts" class="mw-redirect" title="John G. Roberts">Chief Justice John G.

Alito also dissented in <a href="/wiki/Hamdan_v._Rumsfeld" title="Hamdan v. Rumsfeld">Hamdan v. Rumsfeld</a> alongside Justices Scalia and Thomas. Alito delivered the Supreme Court Historical Society's 2008 Annual Lecture, "The Origin of the Baseball Antitrust Exemption". The lecture was published in two journals.<a href="#cite_note-63">[62]</a><a href="#cite_note-64">[63]</a> In 2013, political scientists Andrew Martin and Kevin Quinn called[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Alito "one of the most conservative justices on the Court".<a href="#cite_note-Alberti-2022-65">[64]</a><a href="#cite_note-Granick-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-66">[65]</a>[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">failed verification</a>] While his voting record is conservative, he does not always join the opinions of the Court's other conservative justices. On February 1, 2006, in Alito's first decision on the Supreme Court, he voted with the majority (6–3) to refuse Missouri's request to vacate the <a href="/wiki/Stay_of_execution" title="Stay of execution">stay of execution</a> issued by the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Eighth_Circuit" title="United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit">Eighth Circuit</a> for death-row inmate <a href="/wiki/Michael_Taylor_(American_murderer)" class="mw-redirect" title="Michael Taylor (American murderer)">Michael Taylor</a>. Justices Roberts, Scalia and Thomas were in favor of vacating the stay; Missouri had twice asked the justices to lift the stay and permit the execution.<a href="#cite_note-67">[66]</a> Moreover, despite having been at one time nicknamed "Scalito", Alito's views have differed from those of Scalia (and Thomas), as in the Michael Taylor case and various other cases of the 2005 term. A fierce critic of reliance on legislative history in statutory interpretation,[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Scalia was the only member of the Court in <a href="/wiki/Zedner_v._United_States" title="Zedner v. United States">Zedner v. United States</a> not to join a section of Alito's opinion that discussed the legislative history of the statute in question. In two higher-profile cases, one involving the constitutionality of political gerrymandering and one involving <a href="/wiki/Campaign_finance_reform_in_the_United_States" title="Campaign finance reform in the United States">campaign finance reform</a> (<a href="/wiki/LULAC_v._Perry" class="mw-redirect" title="LULAC v.

Carhart">Gonzales v. Carhart</a>. The Court had previously ruled in <a href="/wiki/Stenberg_v._Carhart" title="Stenberg v. Carhart">Stenberg v. Carhart</a> that a state's ban on <a href="/wiki/Partial_birth_abortion" class="mw-redirect" title="Partial birth abortion">partial birth abortion</a> was unconstitutional because such a ban did not have an exception in the case of a threat to the health of the mother. The membership of the Court changed after Stenberg, with Roberts and Alito replacing Rehnquist (a dissenter in Roe) and O'Connor (a supporter of Roe) respectively. Further, the ban at issue in Gonzales v. Carhart was a federal statute, rather than a state statute as in the Stenberg case. On April 18, 2007, the Supreme Court handed down a decision ruling the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act constitutional. Kennedy wrote for the five-justice majority that Congress was within its power to generally ban the procedure, although the Court left open the door for as-applied challenges. Kennedy said that the challenged statute was consistent with the Court's prior decisions in <a href="/wiki/Roe_v._Wade" title="Roe v. Wade">Roe v. Wade</a>, <a href="/wiki/Planned_Parenthood_v._Casey" title="Planned Parenthood v. Casey">Planned Parenthood v. Casey</a>, and Stenberg v. Carhart. Alito joined fully in the majority, as did Roberts. Thomas filed a concurring opinion, joined by Scalia, contending that the Court's prior decisions in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey should be reversed, and also noting that the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act may exceed the powers of Congress under the Commerce Clause. Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy did not join that assertion.

On May 2, 2022, <a href="/wiki/Politico" title="Politico">Politico</a> published a <a href="/wiki/Dobbs_v._Jackson_Women%27s_Health_Organization#Leaked_draft_opinion" title="Dobbs v.

It was mostly identical to the leaked draft, with the addition of replies to the dissenting and concurring opinions.
