The Chief Justice of the United States leads the Supreme Court and the federal judiciary, and also presides over a Senate trial if a president is impeached. Because the person in this lifetime position can change, give the name of whoever holds the office on the day of your interview. Check uscis.gov/citizenship/testupdates before your interview.
