Title: William Rehnquist Dies
Post by: heinrich on September 04, 2005, 06:14:00 AM

If I recall correctly, the supreme does not NEED 9 members, correct ?  So the court could convene with 7 members (no o'conner or rehnquist) till both replacements are confirmed?

Yes, this is correct.  There is no set number but the average recently has been 9.
