Warren Earl Burger was the 15th Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, serving from 1969 to 1986. Although Burger was perceived as a conservative, and the Burger Court delivered some conservative decisions, the Burger Court also delivered some liberal decisions regarding abortion, capital punishment, religious establishment, and school desegregation during his tenure. Burger joined the majority in Roe v. Wade in holding that the right to privacy prohibited states from banning abortions. He later abandoned Roe v. Wade in Thornburgh v. American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
