US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Hospitalized
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Officials from the United States Supreme Court say Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was admitted to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore Friday with chills and a fever.
Officials said in a statement that Ginsburg, 86, is being treated for a possible infection. She is expected to be released as soon as Sunday morning.
She underwent lung surgery last December, missing six days of arguments. A month earlier, she fell in her home and broke three ribs.
Ginsburg was nominated to the Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton in 1993.
