Chief Justice John Roberts was reported fully recovered Monday from a seizure and fall at his seaside summer home, in which he experienced minor scrapes but no serious injuries. Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said that Roberts, who had a similar episode in 1993, would remain overnight in a Maine hospital.
