Justice Alito Treated for Dehydration at Philadelphia Event

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito fell ill at an event in Philadelphia in March, requiring treatment for dehydration, according to a court spokeswoman. He did not require an overnight hospital stay and was back on the bench the following Monday, actively participating in court hearings. Alito, who recently turned 76, is the second-oldest Supreme Court Justice. The incident raises questions about the health of justices and the potential implications for future appointments, particularly with speculation about retirement given the political landscape.
