I am not sure I understand your question. President Obama appointed her to the Supreme Court in 2009. She was the first Latina judge on the court. She is still on the Supreme Court. It is very unusual for young justices to resign or retire from the court, so since she is still young and healthy, we may assume she will remain on the court during Mr. Obama's second term and even after he has left office.
