Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Burger Court, although headed by a Chief Justice who was more conservative than Earl Warren, refused to overturn many of the liberal precedents established by the Warren Court. Burger himself even voted with the liberal minority in some cases, such as Roe v. Wade. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Option A is incorrect because the Warren Court was known for its focus on civil rights, not property rights. Option B is incorrect because although Burger espoused strict constructionism, he did not completely reverse the Warren Court's agenda. Option D is incorrect because the Warren Court was known for its liberal decisions, not its conservatism.
