Where can you find how Justices voted on Supreme Court cases?
There are two excellent sources for locating the US Supreme Court's opinions and decisions. Justia Beta has a searchable database of all cases, by year or by volume, from 1791 to the present. The Supreme Court maintains updated records on slip opinions for the current Term that may be too new for Justia's database.Other sites, such as FindLaw and Oyez are also excellent resources, but I prefer Justia because they have logged the concurring and dissenting opinions for most cases, along with the Court decision, which helps the reader understand both sides of a case.Despite criticism often directed at it, Wikipedia is also a good site for information on cases from the Supreme Court. The articles for most cases are quite detailed, and include the details of the case, background, decision and opinions of the Court, related cases, and several other areas of importance.
What was the Act that created new Circuit Courts when Adams was President?
The Judiciary Act of 1801, passed February 13, 1801, realigned the judicial districts and created six circuits and five new district courts, ostensibly to relieve the Supreme Court justices of their circuit-riding responsibilities. The Act also reduced the number of Supreme Court justices from six to five, by attrition.The real reason the Federalist President and Congress rushed the Judiciary Act through during the lame duck session was to pack the Judicial Branch with as many Federalist as possible before Adams' presidential successor, Thomas Jefferson, took office. Adams recognized the Federalists were losing power in government and sought to assert control over the court system in order to retain political influence.Jefferson and the Democratic-Republican-dominated Congress foiled Adams' plan by passing the Repeal Act of 1802, which eliminated all the new courts (along with their Federalist judges), reinstated the size of the Supreme Court to six, and forced the Supreme Court justices to continue riding circuit.

When is a case granted an appeal?
A case is granted an appeal by the supreme court. The court session is divided into blocks of about two weeks, during the first block justices sit and listen to lawyers presenting their cases. Then justices sit behind doors and decide what cases they will hear in the future along with the help of their clerks which are actually recent school graduates who help the judges with research and drafts of opinions.Cases come to the supreme court on appeal from a federal court of appeals. This happens when a party is unhappy with an appeal court ruling, meaning the decision that was made on the case. This is why the appellant asks the supreme court to review the case.Another VIew: Before an appealed case can even come before the Supreme Court it has to be appealed to an Appellate Level Court first. Not all cases are granted an appeal hearing but the ones that are, are taken under consideration baased on their merits for proper application of law and procedure by the lower court. Only after an Appelate Court has rendered a decision considered unsatisfactory to the appellant, can it be appealed to the Supreme Court.
