Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist returned to a hospital in Arlington, Va., on Thursday afternoon for treatment of a fever, the Associated Press reported, quoting a Court spokesman. The AP and other wire services later noted that he had been released after being evaluated.
The AP said that Rehnquist was taken to Virginia Hospital Center after developing a fever. That report was attributed to a public information officer of the Court, Edward Turner. Mr. Turner could not be reached for further comment.
Rehnquist was hospitalized for two nights in July after developing a fever. He is being treated for thyroid cancer.
