There is no specific number of cases docketed each year. The Court typically hears between 60-80 oral arguments per year, and reviews approximately another 75 or more cases on paper. The total represents a mere 1-2% of the cases submitted on appeal, due to limitations on the amount of work a nine-Justice Court can handle.
