Further Explanation:

The Supreme Court of United States is the highest court of the country. It looks after the workings of government in regards to rights provided to people and also keeps an eye of working of lower courts such as Local and State Courts. It never takes up any new case. All the cases that come to Supreme Court for hearing and further verdict come from lower courts. If someone is unsatisfied with the verdict which is given to him/her from lower court then He/She has full right to re-appeal against the verdict in Supreme Court. There is one chief justice and eight associate judges in the Supreme Court. All the judges of Supreme Court are appointed for lifetime. Supreme courts works both under Appellate jurisdiction and Original Jurisdiction.  Every year around 10000 cases come to Supreme Court for review but only 80-100 are accepted for reviewing after going through those cases. If Supreme Court chooses to hear a case, both parties are given 30 minutes each to present their case orally and sometimes in some cases, If Supreme Court feels to hear the case more, then this period of oral discussion can also be extended. Earlier the argument of cases used to go on for days and weeks but with the time the workload on Supreme Court has increased and that is the reason there is time limit set for the discussion of a case by Supreme Court.
