The Junior Justice is the most recently appointed member of the Supreme Court, and the lowest-ranking individual in the office hierarchy.
Junior justices are tasked with low-level office chores and administrative duties, such as making and serving coffee, receiving reference materials at the door, and taking notes during the Court's private conferences.
The junior member speaks and votes last when cases are being adjudicated, and sits farthest from the Chief Justice, both on the bench and in conference.
Justice Steven Breyer, finally relieved of the ten-year burden when Justice Alito joined the Court in 2006, recalls carrying coffee to his colleagues. Once, when serving coffee to Justice Scalia, Breyer remarked, "I've been doing this for ten years. I've gotten pretty good at it, haven't I?" Justice Scalia shot back, "No, you haven't."
The Junior Justice is probably the second happiest person on the Court when a new vacancy is filled.
