Question

Which of the following is TRUE of the Supreme Court? every case appealed to the Supreme Court is ruled upon by the court the Court hears all cases when two or more justices agree that the case has merit the Court decides which cases it will hear in deciding cases, the Chief Justice's vote counts as two votes

Answer 1

The Supreme Court decides which cases it will hear. This happens when four of the nine Justices of the Court so decide. The Court normally hears cases that are unique and that poses a law issue that would impact in the whole nation and that would set a clear path for lower courts to follow.

Answer 2

"the Court decides which cases it will hear" is the only true statement, since the Curt is asked to review thousands of cases--far too many to handle unless there was a selection process.
