Was does JJ mean in supreme court?
It stands for "Justices". If it's a single "J" it means it's the opinion of one Justice. If there is a list of more than one Justice followed by a comma and "JJ" it's just a shorthand way of saying "Justices". If one Justice filed a dissent to a decision it might read "Thomas, J. filed a dissenting opinion.", meaning only Clarence Thomas dissented. If it read "Thomas, Scalia, Roberts and Alito, JJ. filed a dissenting opinion." then it means the four of them filed the dissenting opinion together. That way they don't have to type "Thomas, J., Scalia, J., Roberts, J. and Alito, J. filed a dissenting opinion."
