Court historians and other legal scholars consider each chief justice who presides over the Supreme Court of the United States to be the head of an era of the Court.[1] These lists are sorted chronologically by chief justice and include most major cases decided by the court.
These lists contain detailed tables about each term since 1999, including which justices filed the court's opinion, dissenting and concurring opinions in each case, and information about justices joining opinions. The tables conclude with term statistics and concordance data.
