This was Justice Ginsburg’s fifth bout with cancer. In July she announced that her pancreatic cancer had returned. Despite her health issues, the 87-year-old Justice has maintained a busy schedule on the court.

She will be missed. And her passing may alter the ideological balance of the court, by moving it further to the right.
