The Stone Court lasted from June 1941 until April 1946, during the presidencies of Franklin D. Roosevelt (D) and Harry Truman (D). Harlan Fiske Stone was nominated as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States by President Franklin Roosevelt on June 12, 1941.[1]

Stone previously served as an associate justice on the court, after a nomination from President Calvin Coolidge in February 1925. With this nomination, Stone was the first Supreme Court nominee to testify at a confirmation hearing.[2]

Stone served as the twelfth chief justice of the Supreme Court until his death on April 22, 1946.[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]
