The Supreme Court will delay arguments in a case involving an exception to the Constitution’s double jeopardy clause for one day to mark the national day of mourning Wednesday honoring former President George H. W. Bush.<\/b>
\nAssociate Justice Clarence Thomas was nominated by Bush in 1991, and Chief Justice John Roberts worked as the principal deputy solicitor general in the Department of Justice under the Bush administration. Roberts was later nominated to the nation’s highest court by Bush’s son, President George W. Bush, in 2005. Retired Justice David Souter was also nominated to the court by the elder Bush.<\/p>\n
