Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy may be getting ready to hang up his robe, according to recent reports. The 80-year-old Reagan appointee has served on the court for over 29 years, and according to those close to the judge, he is "seriously considering retirement."
"Friends and associates believe Kennedy is seriously considering retirement," reports CNN. "In general, the burdens of age and demands at the court weigh in one direction. His deep interest — and leading role — in America’s constitutional democracy weigh in the other."
There's no word on when Justice Kennedy plans on resigning, but there are rumors that it could come as early as this summer.
