Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was taken to a hospital after falling ill during a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, according to CNN on Fridauy.

The 76-year-old justice was evaluated and treated for dehydration before returning home that same evening.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito made an enigmatic remark about his late mentor Antonin Scalia in an uncharacteristically unguarded interview.

The conservative Scalia died in his sleep nearly a decade ago, on Feb. 13, 2016, roiling that year's presidential race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, but Alito told journalist and author James Rosen that his former colleague would not likely approve of the state of U.S. politics since his passing, according to a new interview published by Politico.

A red state sent a strong message to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and his conservative colleagues in a recent ruling.

The Wyoming Supreme Court struck down the state's abortion ban 4-1 last week, finding that legislators had perhaps inadvertently enshrined abortion access as part of their 2012 backlash to Obamacare, and Slate's Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern argued that red state's court had rebuked the U.S. Supreme Court on the issue.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was taken to a hospital last month after falling “ill” in a previously unreported incident, CNN reported on Friday.

Citing "people with knowledge of the incident,” CNN reported that on March 20 during a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Alito had fallen “ill” and was taken to a nearby hospital. He was evaluated and treated for dehydration before returning home that same night. The incident has not been previously reported, and Alito declined to comment on the matter when pressed by CNN.

The Supreme Court heard arguments on President Donald Trump's executive order redefining birthright citizenship, with observers noting Justice Samuel Alito's apparent support for the government's position.

While Chief Justice John Roberts called Solicitor General D. John Sauer's approach "quirky," Alito posed questions that aided the government's arguments, citing illegal immigration as unknown during the 14th Amendment's adoption. Alito also raised hypothetical questions about Iranian sleeper cells obtaining citizenship.
