Nixon was a unanimous 8-0 decision by the Supreme Court, ruling that President Nixon must turn over tape recordings and other materials subpoenaed as evidence in the Watergate scandal. This decision established the principle that the President is not immune from the judicial process and must comply with court orders. As a result, Nixon resigned from the presidency shortly after the ruling.
