The liberal justice, who was named to the court in 1993 and is now its eldest member, had missed oral arguments in several cases in January while recuperating from her Dec. 21 surgery, but returned to the bench on Feb. 19 and has been an active participant since. One of her opinions on Monday came in a copyright dispute that was argued in January when she was absent. In a unanimous ruling that handed a setback to the American music industry, the justices decided that lawsuits alleging copyright infringement can be brought only when the U.S. Copyright Office has officially registered the copyright, which can take months.
Ginsburg underwent a surgical procedure called a pulmonary lobectomy at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York to remove two cancerous nodules in her left lung. In January, the court said her recovery was on track.
