In cases that reach the Supreme Court on certiorari does the Petitioner bring the case against the Respondent?
Yes. The Petitioner (or Appellant) brings his or her case against the Respondent (or Appellee). The Petitioner is the one who files a petition for a writ of certiorari.Usually, this means the Petitioner lost in the intermediate Court of Appeals, but there have been occasional instances where the winning party files first, in anticipation of the decision being challenged. This strategy is sometimes employed because the Petitioner gets to present his (or her) case first, and may reserve a portion of his allotted 30 minutes for rebuttal after the Respondent has argued. Having an opportunity to rebut the opponent's argument can present a significant advantage.

In the US Supreme Court which side is the petitioner?
The Petitioner is the party that files the appeal (petition for writ of certiorari) with the Supreme Court. Typically, this means whichever party lost the last appeal, but either party may file first. If the case is important enough that the parties suspect the Supreme Court will grant certiorari, they may each try to petition the Court first. The reason is that the Petitioner is allowed to present rebuttal (an answer to the Respondent's argument) during oral arguments, whereas the Respondent is not. This may give the petitioner a strategic advantage.
