Supreme Court

Fell from her seat on an airplane.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was hospitalized overnight after she grew drowsy and fell from her seat aboard an airplane on Wednesday night. Ginsburg was flying to Britain along with justices John Roberts, Stephen Breyer, and Antonin Scalia in order to participate in ceremonies making the opening of Britain’s new Supreme Court. Breyer got off the plane with Ginsburg, and made it to London eventually on a later flight. It was the second hospitalization for Ginsburg in the last month. She was released from the hospital on Thursday morning.
