Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to be sworn-in Thursday to Supreme Court after Breyer officially retires

Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will be sworn in at Noon Thursday as the newest Supreme Court justice.

She will replace liberal-leaning Justice Stephen Breyer, who officially retires Thursday, when the high court ends its term.

Jackson was confirmed by the Senate earlier this year. The date of her swearing-in ceremony was first reported by SCOTUS Blog.

Breyer early Wednesday announced in a letter to President Biden that he would retire at noon Thursday, as planned.
