Rehnquist authored a unanimous opinion of the United States Supreme Court that reversed and remanded for further proceedings consistent with the opinion of the criminal conviction of Arthur Andersen LLP for causing the destruction of its own documents related to its audit of Enron Corporation in 2001.
