Granting Certiorari The Justices use the "Rule of Four” 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.
The Court is likely to deny review if the lower court also ruled against the party on an alternative ground, if there is doubt about the Court's jurisdiction to decide the question, or if the Court would have to resolve some other difficult factual or legal question in order to decide the question presented.

Three factors must be present before the U.S. Supreme Court will review a state court decision: A substantial federal question must be present. Must be a real question. If the issue was a long-settled one, then no question exists.
The Supreme Court has been granted the discretionary powers to review its own judgments under Article 137 of the Constitution.
The U.S. Supreme Court case Marbury v. Madison (1803) established the principle of judicial review—the power of the federal courts to declare legislative and executive acts unconstitutional. The unanimous opinion was written by Chief Justice John Marshall.Jun 7, 2021
The best-known power of the Supreme Court is judicial review, or the ability of the Court to declare a Legislative or Executive act in violation of the Constitution, is not found within the text of the Constitution itself. The Court established this doctrine in the case of Marbury v. Madison (1803).
