Rehnquist to be Absent

The SCOTUSBlog reports today that Chief Justice Rehnquist will not be hearing oral arguments on Monday and probably will miss oral arguments for the entire month, although he does still plan to be at President Bush's inauguration for the swearing in.

With the Chief being gone for so long, he may just be attempting to stay on through the end of the term in June. Certainly, President Bush is going to get one nomination this year--for Chief Justice.
