Administering the Presidential Oath


At the first presidential inauguration in April 1789, the Supreme Court and the federal judiciary had not yet been organized. Therefore, the highest-ranking judicial officer in New York State, Chancellor Robert R. Livingston, administered the oath to George Washington. On March 4, 1793, Associate Justice William Cushing performed the duty at Washington’s second inauguration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Cushing was likely filling in for Chief Justice John Jay, who presumably had returned home to New York after the Court finished its session on February 20, 1793. Subsequently, the Chief Justice has administered the oath to every president except in instances after a president has died in office.
