In the federal court system, the "intermediate" appellate courts are the US Courts of Appeals Circuit Courts.
The usual progression through the federal court system is District Court verdict appealed to U.S. Court of Appeals for the [Appropriate] Circuit, which is the appeals court just below the Supreme Court. From there, the party that loses at the Circuit court level may petition the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari, and will then join a pool of about 10,000 other petitions.
Because the volume of requests for review is so high, the Court only grants cert for about 1% of the petitions on their docket (about 75-100 cases per year). The statistical chance of any individual case being heard by the US Supreme Court is very low.
