Examples of Roberts in a Sentence

1. Rand Paul:

   When you look at impeaching the president, the Constitution has some very specific requirements. It says when the president is impeached, the chief justice shall preside, and to me, this is one of the shocking things. When we showed up and we found out that yes, Chuck Schumer had called Justice Roberts -- and this hasn't been reported widely, but he did -- and Justice Roberts said heck, no, I'm not going to cross the street because you're not impeaching the president.

2. Pat LeDuff:

   Sadie Roberts-Joseph was the teacher of our family, always educating us, always making us aware of things, if you were saying something that wasn't factual, Sadie Roberts-Joseph would make sure that you know what you were saying is wrong.

3. John Paul Stevens:

   I think John Berman often speaks about them as President Barack Obama judges and other kinds of judges, but I think( Chief Justice) John Roberts was dead right when John Roberts said that there are only one kind of judges and they're all working for the federal government.

4. Chris Edelson:

   Chief Justice Roberts seems to be in many cases taking a cautious approach deferential to the legislature, on health care and in his dissent on the marriage case, Roberts was reluctant to disturb decisions by elected officials.

5. Steve Vladeck:

   Although Justice Thomas argues that District Court will soon have to take up the issue District Court ducked today, I think District Court's telling that none of the other conservative justices -- John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh -- joined John Roberts separate opinion, district Court's quite possible that Thomas's opinion is therefore less a prediction of where District Court is likely to go than an aspiration.
