Outgoing Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, who announced his retirement earlier this year after a leak and heavy pressure from leftist organization Demand Justice, will official depart the bench on Thursday, June 30 at noon.
“This past January, I wrote to inform you of my intent to retire from regular active service as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, upon the Court rising for its summer recess. You have nominated and the United States Senate has confirmed the Honorable Ketanji Brown Jackson to succeed me in the office, and I understand that she is prepared to take the prescribed oaths to begin her service as the 116th member of this Court,” Breyer wrote in a letter to President Joe Biden Wednesday.
