For occupying the top judicial office in the most powerful nation on earth, United States Supreme Court justices are relatively modestly paid. The eight associate justices earn an annual average salary of $213,900.While thatâs nearly five times the median income of all Americans, the total isnât nearly as high as the pay for partners at 68 of the nationâs top law firms, each of whom take home an average of more than $1 million.urprisingly, there are no written qualifications to become a Supreme Court justice or associate justice. Individuals of all ages, educational attainment and career backgrounds can be considered. Justices donât have to be lawyers, judges -- or even U.S. citizens.
Evening Formal & Semi-Formal. In the evening in the US, it is appropriate to wear white or black tie, particularly if your wedding isnât taking place in a church. I went to a New Yearâs Eve wedding a few years ago in a naval mansion, and it was lovely to see the gentlemen in black tie.
If your wedding is in the daytime or outdoors, it can be a bit more casual (think: lighter-colored suits made of fabrics like seersucker or khaki). If it's an evening affair in a ballroom or swanky hotel, go with either a dark, well-tailored suit or for black-tie attire (a tux).
