This market will resolve to "Yes" if Samuel Alito announces that he will retire from his position as Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States by the specified date at 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The announced timing of his retirement may be immediate, at the end of the current Supreme Court term, or at any point in the future. Any qualifying announcement from Alito will count for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of whether the announced retirement goes into effect. The resolution source for this market will be official announcements from Alito or one of his official representatives.Justice Samuel Alito, 76, has publicly stated he intends to serve another Supreme Court term, with the 2026 term beginning in October and running into mid-2027. An erroneous June 2026 NPR report claiming his retirement was quickly retracted after a misunderstanding of court announcements, prompting no official action or confirmation from Alito or the Court. Conservative calls for retirement to allow President Trump another appointment have persisted amid potential Senate shifts post-midterms, yet Alito has dismissed such pressures, citing life tenure. Trader sentiment reflects these statements and the absence of recent signals, with resolution hinging on any future announcement before the market's specified cutoff.
