The teaching of creationism in public schools has stood trial a number of times. At least two of such cases came before the US Supreme Court: Epperson v. Arkansas, 1968; Edwards v. Aguillard, 1987. In both instances, the US Supreme Court ruled against the statutes promoted by the creationist groupings concerned. In a number of other cases before district courts and federal courts, rulings were also against any statute that would require a religiously based modification to the biology curriculum, stating that such statutes are unconstitutional as they violate the establishment clause of the First Amendment of the US Constitution.

If you mean Dred Scott, yes he did, while he was on Northern soil, where his master had unwisely taken him. It is not known why he did not sue for his freedom while he had the chance. But when he came back to the South, it was more difficult. The local authorities took advantage of the confused situation and denied him his freedom - a decision ratified by the Supreme Court.
The person who is chosen will most likely be on the bench for 30 or more years. They make decisions that affect all our lives. An example of a Supreme Court decision would be Brown v Topika Board of education. This decision made intergration of schools possible. The Miranda decision came from the Supreme Court in reading rights to persons who are arrested. Roe v Wade concerning abortion is an case. As you can see they make some important decisions that affect all of us. Not all cases are heard before the court, but those that do get there can change laws.
The Dred Scott decision by the Supreme Court came first (1857). It was one of the causes of the Civil War, as it heightened the tensions between the two sections. The secession of the first Southern state, South Carolina, (December 1860) was a more immediate trigger. Six states followed, and then Confederate gunners fired on a U.S. Army garrison in Charleston Harbour - the first shots of the war.
Supreme Court decision in Wesberry v. Sanders
Decisions, though made by individual judges are always decisions of the court. That is why whether the decision is manifestly wrong ab initio, the judge is not sued for it but an appeal to a higher court is advised.
Generally speaking if an appeals court or a supreme court, returns the trial transcripts back to the lower court from where it came from, it means that the lower court's decision was a sound. Thus whatever the lower court has done with regards to sentencing or other items, they remain intact. This frequently happens in many cases.
