An Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines is one of 15 members of the Philippine Supreme Court, the highest court in the Philippines. The Chief Justice presides over the High Court, but carries only 1 of the 15 votes in the court. Traditionally, the Chief Justice is deemed as primus inter pares ("first among equals") among the Justices.
Until 1973, only men were appointed as Associate Justices to the Court. Cecilia Muņoz-Palma, an appointee of President Ferdinand Marcos, was the first woman to sit on the Court. Since then, 12 other women have been appointed as Associate Justices of the Supreme Court.
