As of August 2010, two of President Ronald Reagan's three US Supreme Court appointees are still active on the Court. Justice Antonin Scalia, appointed in 1986, became Senior Associate Justice when Justice Stevens retired in June. Justice Anthony Kennedy, appointed in 1988, has served the second longest tenure on the current Court.

Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the third Reagan appointee, joined the Court in 1981 and retired in 2006. She was succeeded by Justice Samuel Alito.
