Abstract
Justice Anthony Kennedy retired from the United States Supreme Court in 2018, after more than 30 years serving in the influential role. During his time on the bench, significant controversy was sparked following Kennedy J's citation offoreign law in a number of majority opinions interpreting and applying the United States Constitution. The intensity of these debates notably contrasts with Australian attitudes and practice regarding the use of comparative analysis in constitutional adjudication. This article offers a reflection on this aspect of Kennedy J's judicial legacy from an Australian perspective.
