History

<u>Answer:</u>

The cases are heard by the Supreme Court only if four of the nine sitting judges vote for the case to be heard by the Supreme Court.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Not all matters that are brought in front of the Supreme Court are worth its time. Thus, the nine justices that work as subordinates to the Supreme Court decide whether a matter is worthy enough to be heard by the Supreme Court/Chief Justice.

Thus, for a case to be heard by the Supreme Court, the 'Writ of Certiorari' needs to be granted by at least four subordinate justices.

Explanation:

"Original jurisdiction" cases are rare, with the Court hearing one or two cases each term. The most common way for a case to reach the Supreme Court is on appeal from a circuit court. A party seeking to appeal a decision of a circuit court can file a petition to the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari.
