The hospitalization followed her return to the bench Monday after missing a day of arguments the previous week.

Last week, she was “home with a stomach bug,” a court spokesperson said.

Ginsburg was treated over the summer for a cancerous tumor on her pancreas, and she underwent surgery last winter for lung cancer.

She has vowed to stay on the Supreme Court, which is staffed by lifetime presidential appointments, as long as her health permits.
