If your case is heard in the Supreme Court how did you do in the lower court?

If you appeal the case to the Supreme Court, you lost in a lower court.Answer:That depends on whether you're the party appealing the decision (the Appellee or Petitioner) or the opposing party (the Appellant or Respondent). If you're petitioning the Court for a writ of certiorari, you're asking the court to review the case because you lost.If someone else is petitioning a case in which you were the opposing party, it means you won and your opponent is contesting the verdict.Every case has a winner and a loser. You didn't specify which side you were on, hypothetically.
