Sotomayor ceremony set for Sept 9th
The Supreme Court on Tuesday released the details of the Sept. 8 ceremony in which Justice Sonia Sotomayor will take her seat on the bench for the first time.

A formal investiture ceremony for Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor will take place at a
special sitting of the Supreme Court in the Courtroom on Tuesday, September 8, at
2 p.m. On August 8, Sonia Sotomayor was sworn in as the 11 lh Justice in a private
ceremony at the Supreme Court so that she could begin to participate in the work of the
Court immediately...

Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr., Justice Sotomayor, and Justice Sotomayor's family
will be available for photographers at approximately 2: 15 p.m., Tuesday, September 8, on
the front plaza of the Supreme Court building, immediately following the investiture
ceremony.

Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Sotomayor will walk down the front steps of the
building and stand briefly at the base of the steps on the plaza. They will not be available
for questions. Members of Justice Sotomayor's family will then join the Justice briefly
for photographs. Again, there will be no opportunity for questions. Credentials issued by
the Public Information Office are required for access to the plaza. Cameras may be
positioned on the plaza any time after 1 p.m. in the designated roped-off area. All crews
should be in place by 1 :45 p.m.
