Speaking at a dinner last night in Washington, D.C., U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts said there is more the court can do to “adhere to the highest standards” of ethical conduct and that the justices “are continuing to look at the things we can do to give practical effect to that commitment.” He also said he is “confident there are ways to do that consistent with our status as an independent branch of government and the Constitution’s separation of powers.” Roberts provided no specifics though, the Associated Press reports. Roberts was attending the American Law Institute's annual dinner, where he received the Henry J. Friendly Medal.
