The Fuller Court lasted from July 1888 to July 1910, during the presidencies of Grover Cleveland (D), Benjamin Harrison (R), William McKinley (R), Theodore Roosevelt (R), and William Howard Taft (R).

Melville Weston Fuller was nominated as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court by President Grover Cleveland on April 30, 1888. He was confirmed by the United States Senate on July 20, 1888, and was commissioned on the same day. Fuller was the eighth Chief Justice in the history of the Supreme Court. His judicial service ended on July 4, 1910, upon his death.[1][2][3]

The Supreme Court of the United States is the highest judicial body in the country and leads the judicial branch of the federal government. It is often referred to by the acronym SCOTUS.[4]
