Answer:

Typically, the Court hears cases that have been decided in either an appropriate U.S. Court of Appeals or the highest Court in a given state (if the state court decided a Constitutional issue). The Supreme Court has its own set of rules. According to these rules, four of the nine Justices must vote to accept a case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes people need a " Power of Attorney" or Lawyer and a very good one at that ( Like Thurgood Marshall) to get through most cases but most cases are not able to be testified without the attorney or lawyer present.

Answer:

The most common way for a case to reach the Supreme Court is on appeal from a circuit court. A party seeking to appeal a decision of a circuit court can file a petition to the Supreme Court.
