Best Answer

The vehicle through which representatives of special interest groups are able to express opinions on matters before the Court is called an amicus curiae (pl. amici curiae), or "friend of the court" brief (or sometimes academic paper) related to questions of law or fact in the case at bar.

The group or individual filing the brief is not a party to the case, and has no legal standing to participate in litigation, but has an interest in the outcome. Often, the amicus presents a point of law or of psychological or sociological relevance to the case.
