Chief Justice Roberts Suffers Seizure

Chief Justice John Roberts suffered a seizure yesterday in his home in Maine and was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

Around 2 p.m., Roberts was taken from his home on Hupper Island to the mainland on a private boat; from there he was transferred to an ambulance.

A spokeswoman said the chief justice, 52, was taken to the hospital as a precaution. He was said to be “fine” this morning.

While the court is trying to brush off this incident by blaming it on stress, I have qualms of Roberts’ ability to serve. This is not his first seizure (the last one occurred in 1993) and TIME magazine had an interesting article today questioning whether Roberts is epileptic.

TIME:

“Doctors classify anyone who has experienced two or more unexplained seizures as having epilepsy, a disorder in which the electrical activity of the brain is interrupted, similar to a surge on an electrical line, for brief periods of time.”

Oh boy.

Today is a big day for the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson. A federal judge is expected to rule today on a deal that could give them control of sales of O.J. Simpson’s crazed manifesto, “If I Did It.”

The hearing, scheduled to begin now, will be held at U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Miami to finally determine who receives publishing rights to Simpson’s hypothetical story of the 1994 murder of his  wife and Goldman.

Simpson was famously acquitted of their murders at a criminal trial, but a civil court jury found him legally liable for the deaths. Fred Goldman, Ron’s father, won the right last month to pursue the publishing rights as part of the $38 million judgment against Simpson.
