The failed impeachment attempt reinforced the concept of judicial independence, preserved the separation of powers, demonstrated the system of checks and balances was effective.
It also discouraged Supreme Court justices from becoming directly involved in partisan politics, and Congress from attempting to use impeachment as a political weapon in the absence of actions that could be legitimately considered "high crimes and misdemeanors."

President Nixon nominated Chief Justice Warren Burger to the US Supreme Court in 1969, to succeed Chief Justice Earl Warren, who was retiring. Burger presided over the Court from 1969-1986, when he was succeeded by Chief Justice William H.

During his tenure in the Department of Justice, Burger argued two cases before the US Supreme Court, winning one, Dalehite, et al. v. United States, 346 US 15 (1953). The Supreme Court overturned the Federal Tort Claims Act of 1947 as a result of the Dalehite decision.In 1956, President Eisenhower appointed Burger to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, where he remained until nominated to replace Earl Warren as Chief Justice in 1969.

Wade, (1973), United States v. Nixon, (1974), and Gregg v. Georgia, (1976).Burger was an unpopular Chief Justice whom colleagues considered dull, plodding, and a poor leader. By the time he retired in 1986, he had alienated the other justices on the Supreme Court.Warren Burger died of congestive heart failure on June 21, 1995, at the age of 87.
