The US Supreme Court only has the time and the resources to hear less than 1% of the cases which request it. The court must limit itself to issues where the law is unsettled and there is a pressing need for the court to make a determination on an issue.

∙ 11y agoYou can only take your case to the Supreme Court if:
- You have already lost in Federal Circuit court.
- You have reasonable grounds for an appeal.
- The Supreme Court agrees to hear your case.
The last one is the hardest: the S.C. agrees to hear a tiny percentage of the cases that people want them to. There's only so much time every year, and lots of cases.

How does the Supreme Court help us?
If a decision made at District Court is successfully appealled, the case gets taken to a higher court. If there wasn't a Supreme Court, cases would keep getting appealled and taken to a higher court each time. Rulings by the Supreme Court can get appealled (the case would get taken to Congress), but this process is very difficult. The Supreme Court also has a duty to make sure laws and actions by the President and Congress are not unconsitutional.
