The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court presides over the impeachment trial of
the president. The trial is conducted in the U.S. Senate and prosecuted by
members of the House of Representatives following a House vote on articles of
impeachment. Salmon P. Chase carried out this constitutional duty during Andrew
Johnson's impeachment in 1868 and William H. Rehnquist during Bill Clinton's
impeachment in 1998.
