Justice Ginsburg Released from Hospital, Supreme Court Says

Nov. 9, 2018, 4:20 PM UTC

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been released from the hospital a day after being admitted with three broken ribs, Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said.

The 85-year-old justice is “doing well and working from home today,” Arberg said.

Ginsburg, a two-time cancer survivor, injured herself when she was in her office Wednesday night. The accident caused her to miss Thursday’s courtroom ceremony for new Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
