The U.S. Supreme Court follows a legal standard known as the Rule of four. This rule states that only four of the nine Supreme Court justices are required to grant a writ of certiorari (agreeing to hear the case). Such a practice prevents the formation of a majority (five justices or more) dominating the Supreme Court's planned agenda.
The Supreme Court receives about 10,000 petitions a year. The Justices use the Rule of Fourâ to decide if they will take the case. If four of the nine Justices feel the case has value, they will issue a writ of certiorari. This is a legal order from the high court for the lower court to send the records of the case to them for review. When all is said and done the Supreme Court will hear about 75-85 cases a year. This tells us that most petitions are denied.
