Answer:

The statement that is an example of judicial activism is: A judge always rules in favor of the right to privacy, regardless of previous rulings.

Explanation:

If a judge continuously seems to favor rulings that support a particular issue or cause, then it is said that he or she is exercising judicial activism and they are basing their decision on their personal beliefs rather than law or precedent on a legal issue. One example often cited as an example of judicial activism is the Supreme Court decision on Roe vs. Wade. Critics say that the justices who sided in favor of allowing abortion read the right to abortion as a right to privacy, but abortion was not an aspect of privacy established by law. The critics say the justices in this instance interpreted the case based on their personal views rather than established law.
