Circuit, Roberts authored 49 opinions, eliciting two dissents from other judges, and authoring three dissents of his own.In 2005, Roberts was nominated to be an associate justice of the Supreme Court, initially to succeed the retiring Sandra Day O'Connor.When Rehnquist died before Roberts's confirmation hearings began, Bush instead nominated Roberts to fill the chief justice position.
