Justice Ginsburg will be involved with the cases that the court is hearing while recovering at home.


A court spokeswoman indicated that she would still participate in today’s cases based on the briefs and transcripts.


Ginsburg missing Supreme Court arguments for 1st time

WASHINGTON (AP) — Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is missing arguments for the first time in more than 25 years as she recuperates from cancer surgery last month, the Supreme Court said.

Ginsburg was not on the bench as the court met Monday to hear arguments. It was not clear when she would return to the court, which will hear more cases on Tuesday and Wednesday, and again next week.

Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said the 85-year-old justice is continuing to recuperate and work from home after doctors removed two cancerous growths from her left lung on Dec. 21.

Whether you agree with her rulings or not, there is no denying that lady has a strong work ethic.

Can't disagree with that conclusion.

25 years is a pretty impressive streak...

She's like the little engine that could. I hope I have as much energy at 65 as she does at 85.

She's definitely made of the stuff we rarely see anymore. I have a friend doing heavy construction that turns 70 this year and half the "kids" he works with can't keep up.
