Ruth Bader Ginsburg released from hospital

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was released from a Baltimore hospital on Wednesday, and is "doing well and glad to be home," the Supreme Court said in a statement.

The 87-year-old was hospitalized at Johns Hopkins Hospital on Tuesday, one day after she sought medical care for a gallbladder condition. She received non-surgical treatment for a gallstone, and is expected to return in the next few weeks for additional treatments, the Supreme Court said.

Ginsburg has received treatment for cancer four times, and last August underwent radiation for a tumor on her pancreas. She participated in Wednesday's oral arguments via telephone.
