The U.S. Supreme Court said late Tuesday that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, with an infection caused by a gallstone.

Ginsburg, 87, is recovering after non-surgical treatment for acute cholecystitis, a benign gallbladder condition. She initially sought medical attention on Monday when the gallstone was first diagnosed.
