Justice Ginsburg Misses SCOTUS Opening Arguments for FIRST TIME EVER — She’s Not Even in DC
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg skipped opening arguments today for the first in her 25 years on the court.
Ginsburg underwent cancer treatment last month.
She is not even in Washington DC. She is in New York.
The Associated Press reported:
The Supreme Court says Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is missing arguments for the first time in more than 25 years as she recuperates from cancer surgery last month.
Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said Monday the 85-year-old Ginsburg is continuing to recuperate and work from home after doctors removed two cancerous growths from her left lung odn Dec. 21.
Ginsburg was discharged from a New York hospital on Dec. 25.
Ginsburg had two earlier cancer surgeries in 1999 and 2009 that did not cause her to miss court sessions. She also has broken ribs on at least two occasions.
