The Warren Court lasted from October 1953 until June 1969, during the presidencies of Dwight D. Eisenhower (R), John F. Kennedy (D), and Lyndon Johnson (D).

Earl Warren was nominated as Chief Justice by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on September 30, 1953. He received a recess appointment for Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court from President Dwight D. Eisenhower on October 2, 1953. On January 11, 1954, Eisenhower nominated him to the same position. He was confirmed by the Senate on March 1, 1954, and received commission on March 20, 1954. Warren assumed senior status on June 23, 1969, and served until his death on July 9, 1974.[1]

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.[2]
