You are right ~ 36 previous SC Justices were not judges prior to being selected for the SC.

Thanks, blackie...didn't realize there had been that many though! Do you know if they even need to be lawyers?

The Constitution doesn't require that Supreme Court justices be attorneys, ...
No President has ever nominated a non-lawyer.
