New Judicial Order Chief Justice William Rehnquist died on Sept. 3 at the age of 80. Earlier in the year, Sandra Day O'Connor, the nation's first female Supreme Court justice, had announced plans to retire. John Roberts, 50, initially tapped to fill O'Connor's seat, was swiftly approved to succeed Rehnquist, becoming the 17th U.S. chief justice. President Bush then nominated White House lawyer Harriet Miers to the remaining seat, but she withdrew after enduring harsh criticism from Republicans and Democrats alike. Confirmation hearings for the new nominee, Samuel Alito, are set for early 2006.
