A US Supreme Court Term begins on the first Monday in October and ends on the first Monday in October of the following year.
The Court holds two-week sittings alternating with two-week periods where they write decisions and tend to administrative duties. The Court officially begins hearing cases the first Monday in October each year, but sometimes schedule arguments in September, which is considered pre-Term. Oral arguments generally conclude at the end of April, although the justices have the discretion to hear cases after that time. The Court finalizes decisions and writes opinions until late June or early July, then reviews petitions for writs of certiorari during the remaining months of the Term.
The US Supreme Court has heard more than 30,000 cases since its inception in 1789 (no cases were heard for the first few years).
It will decide that the cases do not need to be heard. The Supreme Court only takes the cases that relate to the Constitution.
b. cases will be heard
The Supreme Court is the highest appellate court in the United States. It does not try cases, in the standard sense of the word, but only reviews lower court decisions. Usually, cases heard by the Supreme Court involve issues of Constitutional law or federal legislation.
Article III of the Constitution discusses what types of court cases are heard in federal courts, and which are heard under the Supreme Court's original and appellate jurisdictions.
The Supreme Court is the court of last resort. When all appeals and lower courts have heard and ruled on a case it may go to the Supreme Court, but the court doesn’t have to hear it and may let the lower ruling stand or kick it back to the lower federal court.
Centarori
The Supreme Court hears three kinds of cases. Cases appealed from lower federal courts account for two-thirds of the cases they hear. They also hear cases appealed from state's supreme courts, and sometimes hear cases that have not been previously heard by a lower court, such as between one state's government and another.
The Supreme Court of the United States was created in 1789. Most of the cases the court hears come from lower courts. Each year, the Supreme Court receives 7,000 or more requests to hear cases from lower courts.
The US Supreme Court serves as the final court of appeal
The Supreme Court justices hear cases in the courtroom of the Supreme Court Building in Washington, DC.
No. Congress and Article III of the Constitution determine what types of cases the US Supreme Court may hear. The Supreme Court has complete discretion over the specific cases they review under both original and appellate jurisdiction. The President has no role in the process.
