How are Supreme Court cases decided in the United States?


A simple majority of the justices rule on each case.


Justices hear the argument of the case, then, they gather to discuss it. Each justice counts on one vote to each case. When at least five justices uphold one decision, that one becomes the “opinión” of the Court which represents the final precedent. The justice who has been in office for longer will write down the opinion of the Court. If the Chief Justice is among those five justices, he must write the opinion down.
