Under Rule 28 of the 2010 Rules of the Court, the docketing fee for US Supreme Court cases is $300 (plus additional fees for various services, if required), unless the party files motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis (as a pauper, or poor person) and the Court grants its permission. All court fees are waived for these cases.

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.
