Supreme Court nominee Sonya Sotomayor, 54, has reportedly broken her ankle after stumbling at LaGuardia Airport in New York. The judge was en route to Capitol Hill on Monday to continue her meetings with the senators.
She started meeting with senators last week, and by the end of the week had met with more than one-quarter of the senate, and most members of the Judicial Committee.
She would replace Souter in the court, if she is confirmed, first got a call from the White House on April 27, had almost daily contact with his office after Souter announced his retirement on May 1.
If confirmed Sotomayor would be the first Hispanic, and the third woman to serve in the court.
