The Rehnquist Court gathers the justices who served under Chief Justice William Rehnquist from 1986 to 2005, an era marked by a revival of federalism limits on Congress in cases such as United States v. Lopez, the contested resolution of the 2000 presidential election in Bush v. Gore, and a closely divided Court that narrowed but did not overturn Roe v. Wade in Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992.
