Sonia Sotomayor received $3 million from a book publisher, but she did not recuse herself from some key cases involving that publisher. The vote was for whether to grant cert, which means whether the high court should take up a case. Fellow Justice Stephen Breyer did recuse himself because he had also written books for Penguin Random House. His wife is also related to the family that owned a stake in the publisher and held stock in that company worth $1 million to $5 million in 2013.
