Several of the early US Supreme Court justices were special envoys who negotiated (or attempted to negotiate) issue of foreign relations. John Jay, Oliver Ellsworth, and John Marshall all made important contributions in this area.

Chief Justice Marshall joined the Supreme Court in 1801, so he had already presided over the Court for two years in 1803. Prior to becoming Chief Justice, Marshall served as President Adams' Secretary of State, and also as a diplomatic envoy to France.
Our former president was asked to be an envoy to the united nations.
John Jay was the first Chief Justice of the United States. He presided over the Supreme Court in its first major case, Chisholm v. Georgia, (1793), where the Court made the politically unpopular declaration that states lacked sovereign immunity against law suits for war debt. This triggered a panic among the states that quickly lead to ratification of the Eleventh Amendment, revoking the Supreme Court's right to hear cases brought by citizens of one state against the government of another state. If the Court's verdict had been allowed to stand, the states could have been bankrupted by war claims.The Supreme Court had very little influence in government until it came under the leadership of John Marshall, the fourth Chief Justice of the United States.John Jay was more effective as a Governor and envoy (although his treaties were also unpopular) than as a Chief Justice.
