Ginsburg Lies In Repose at Supreme Court
Washington, DC, USA | 23-25 September 2020


As the fight to replace her heats up, the body of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will lie in repose at the Supreme Court this week, with arrangements to allow for public viewing despite the coronavirus pandemic, the court said Monday.

Ginsburg’s casket will be on view Wednesday and Thursday at the top of the main staircase outside the Supreme Court building. She will lie in state Friday in Statuary Hall at the U.S. Capitol. She is to be buried next week in a private service at Arlington National Cemetery.

U.S. President Donald Trump says he is planning to name his pick by Friday or Saturday, ahead of the first presidential election debate, and before Ginsburg is buried, thereby launching a monumental Senate confirmation fight ahead of the November election.
