Burger Steers Court Rulings in 1980 81 Term
Washington Chief Justice Warren E. Burger emerged as the court's most influential member in the 1980-81 term. He spoke for the court on abortion, cameras in the courtroom, religious freedom, and national security, steering majority opinions and shaping rulings on parental notification for abortions, media access at trials, unemployment benefits for religious workers, and passport revocation for national security threats. The term showed no single guiding philosophy, with deference to Congress and states, and emphasized the court as the last resort influencing American life.
