Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was absent from in-person oral arguments on Monday, participating remotely after he was released from the hospital on Friday. Thomas had been admitted for “flu-like” symptoms one week before.

Thomas, 73, was absent for three oral arguments last week after being admitted to Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C., on March 18 for an unspecified infection, which the court previously said was not related to COVID-19.
