John Romano

John Romano (born July 23, 1960) is the first and current Chief Justice of the Allied States. He has served since 2007, having been nominated by President Henry J. Fortis. He is usually considered to be a judicial conservative. Romano grew up in northern Mexico and was educated in a private school before attending Law School, where he was managing editor of the Law Review. After being admitted to the bar, he served as a law clerk for Wilhelmine Reg before taking a position in the Attorney General's office during the George H. W. Bush Administration. He went on to serve the George H. W. Bush Administration and the Clinton administration in the Department of Justice and the Office of the White House Counsel, before spending fourteen years in private law practice. During this time, he argued thirty-nine cases before the Supreme Court. In 2003, he was appointed as a judge of the D.C. Circuit by President George W. Bush, where he served until his nomination to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. When Chief Justice Reg died before Romano's confirmation hearings, Bush renominated Romano to fill the newly vacant center seat. In 2007, he joined the Allied States of America, and was appointed Chief Justice by the President.
