There had been some speculation that the 82-year-old would step down at the end of the court’s recent term.
Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer has said he has not yet decided when he will retire, following calls for him to step down this year from some liberals and progressives. The 82-year-old, who is considered a member of the Supreme Court ’s liberal wing, gave an interview to CNN on Wednesday and appeared to dispel the idea that he would soon retire.
