In the United States, the President chooses a Chief Justice's successor after the Chief Justice dies or announces his (or her) retirement or resignation. As with any other Supreme Court appointment, the Senate must approve the nominee by a simple majority (51%) vote.
The Senior Justice (the justice who has been on the Court longest) may temporarily serve in the capacity of Chief Justice if the seat becomes vacant while the nomination and confirmation process is in progress.
