The US Supreme Court received 7,738 petitions for writ of certiorari last Term, of which approximately 30% (3,000) are placed on the "discuss list" and voted on in conference. Approximately 70%, or 5,417, of the cases are "summarily dismissed."

The justices eventually select 1.3-1.9%, or 100-150 cases, for adjudication. The Court schedules oral argument for a little more than half of those selected, and disposes of the remaining cases in other ways. Not all cases receive a full opinion.
