There are various steps that lead to a Supreme Court hearing. First of all, the case begins in the lower courts. If unhappy with the decision reached in this court, the case can be appealed before US Court of Appeals. If this doesn't go well, the defendant can request a rehearing or petition the Supreme Court. A petition of certiorari has to be filed, this will ask the Supreme Court to hear the case. At this point, the Court will either agree to hear the case, or reject it.
When a case goes immediately to the US Supreme Court, the jurisdiction invoked is the Court's original jurisdiction. This means that the case is being brought directly to the Supreme Court without going through lower courts. Generally, the Supreme Court exercises its original jurisdiction in cases involving disputes between states, certain cases involving foreign ambassadors, and cases where a state is a party and the Court has granted permission to hear the case.
