How do you get the US Supreme Court to review a prior Supreme Court decision for current application?
You can't. Someone with standing (someone who is personally, negatively and significantly impacted) would have to initiate a new case that challenges the established precedent sufficiently to warrant reconsideration of the matter. The party bringing the case would have to lose at both the trial and intermediate appellate level (or hope the opposing party has sufficient interest in pursuing an appeal if they lose) before the case can be petitioned to the US Supreme Court.
In the 2008-2009 Term, the Court received 7,738 petitions for writ of certiorari from people who wanted their cases reviewed. Of these, the Court can only choose about 150 cases for disposition; only about half the cases selected are scheduled for oral argument and receive full written opinions. Cases are selected on the basis of topicality, national significance, and constitutional issues raised. They may be willing to take a second look at a precedent, or may decide the law is settled - at least for the moment.
Even if the justices grant certiorari on a case involving an established precedent, and even if the Court agrees that a particular application should be handled differently, they may make a narrow ruling creates an exception while leaving the earlier decision substantially intact. This outcome is more common than one that completely overturns a prior decision.
In any event, there is no way to compel the Supreme Court to review any particular case. The Court has full discretion over cases heard under appellate jurisdiction. Statistically, the likelihood of having the case rejected is 98-99%.
