Appeal to US Supreme Court

The video tutorial explains the two primary methods by which cases can reach the US Supreme Court: through an appeal from a losing party at the appellate court level or via a writ of certiorari issued by the Supreme Court itself. The Supreme Court typically hears cases with significant constitutional implications or those that require uniformity in law across the United States. The process involves reviewing the constitutionality and application of laws, and the Supreme Court can also review state Supreme Court decisions if they have federal constitutional implications.
