Biography: American jurist, an imposing figure as Chief Justice

presiding in the impeachment trial of American President

 

William Jefferson Clinton. In his role as defined in

the Constitution, his main task was to rule on procedural

 

issues while keeping order in the Senate chamber. He

is well qualified for the job, having written a scholarly

 

history a few years prior on the 1868 impeachment

trial of President Andrew Johnson. A man of great discretion

 

professionally and personally, he has not discussed

his opinion on the impeachment, but many believe that the

 

issue caused him certain conflicts. He has a

right-wing conservative background, but also believes that

 

impeachment and removal from office is a grave step.

 

The son of a wholesale paper broker and a college

educated mother, Rehnquist was an intellectually

 

precocious boy. " Bill got his smarts from his mom and

his sense of humor from his dad, " said a long-term

 

friend. He went to Stanford University and graduated

first in his law class.

 

In 1959, Rehnquist started private practice with a

partner in Phoenix, Arizona, doing mostly real estate, wills and

 

contracts, joking that " a fair amount of our time was

devoted to counting cracks in the office ceiling. "

 

A decade later he took a job as an assistant attorney

general in the Justice Department and three years later, at

 

47, was named to the Supreme Court by Richard Nixon in

replacement of Warren Burger in spite of never having

 

served as a judge.

 

For all the gravity that is seen on TV, the jurist is

known for his informal manner, with cowboy boots sometimes

 

seen under his robes. Though he stands by a

conservative agenda at the court, voting for the death penalty and

 

against abortion, he has shown little trepidation

about bending tradition. His legal brilliance is awesome; an

 

intellectual giant, he easily demonstrates a

remarkable memory.

 

Married to former CIA employee Nan Cornell, Rehnquist

enjoys bridge, oil-painting, choral singing,

 

stamp-collecting, swimming, tennis and theater. He

and Nan had three children, James, 43, a lawyer in Boston;

 

Janet, 40, a federal prosecutor in Alexandria, VA;

and Nancy, 39, who lives with her family in Weybridge, VT.

 

They were an uncommonly devoted couple and after 38

years of marriage, he was devastated when Nan died of

 

cancer in 1991.

 

On 12/19/1998 at 1:25 PM EST Washington, DC, the

motion was passed to adopt impeachment proceedings of

 

the U.S. President, the trial at which Rehnquist

presided. The president was acquitted on 2/12/1999 as the

 

Senate did not reach the two-thirds majority vote in

spite of ferocious partisan passions.

 

Diagnosed with thyroid cancer, the Supreme Court Chief

Justice was admitted to the Bethesda Naval Hospital in

 

Bethesda, MD on October 22, 2004. He underwent a

tracheotomy the following day. The 80-year-old jurist was

 

released from the hospital on October 29 to recuperate

at home and was hoping to resume duties within a

 

week. However, on November 1, 2004, he disclosed that

he is beginning radiation and chemotherapy and that
