REHNQUIST WATCH
Hospitalized for fever. WaPo:
The chief justice had been coming to the court daily but did not show up as usual Wednesday morning. Court officials initially declined to say why he was absent or explain unusual happenings at Rehnquist’s Arlington home.
Members of the media near the residence saw a court police officer make several trips to the house, leaving each time with various personal items. First the officer carried out Rehnquist’s distinctive cane and a shirt. Later, he brought out other clothing.
At about 2:30 p.m., [court spokeswoman Kathy ]Arberg issued a two-sentence statement saying Rehnquist was hospitalized for a fever and undergoing tests.
It was the second time in less than four months that Rehnquist was taken by ambulance to the hospital. In March, he was brought in with breathing problems. He did not stay overnight then.
