According to Article III Section 1 of the Constitution, established and provides main duties of the Supreme Court. To give some background, there are nine court Justices whom are elected by the president of the United States and approved by the United States Senate, in order to take the bench. Typically, Justices serve their whole life on the bench, due to the court justice position being a life term, under good behavior. The Supreme Court is also known as the ''Law of the Land'' due to the Supreme Court to decide the final verdict. The Supreme Court receives thousands of appeals from cases that have already been decided by lower courts, however, the Supreme Court chose which cases they want to hear and try. Out of the thousands of request they receive, the Supreme Court only hear and try less than 25% of cases. In fact according to the Certiorari Act of 1925, it gives the Court the discretion to decide whether or not to hear or try a case. In a petition for a writ of certiorari, a party asks the Court to review its case. The Supreme Court agrees to hear about 100-150 of the more than 7,000 cases that it is asked to review each year.〔"About the Supreme Court." USCOURTSGOV RSS.

The best known power of the Supreme Court of the United States is the judicial review, which entitles the Court to declare a Legislative or Executive act in violation of the Constitution, however, this is not listed in the Constitution itself. The Court-based this doctrine in the case of ''Marbury v. Madison''(1803). [ According to the Judiciary Act of 1789, it gave the Supreme Court original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus (legal orders compelling government officials to act in accordance with the law). A suit was brought under this Act, but the Supreme Court noted that the Constitution did not permit the Court to have original jurisdiction in this matter. Since Article VI of the Constitution establishes the Constitution as the Supreme Law of the Land, the Court held that an Act of Congress that is contrary to the Constitution could not stand. In subsequent cases, the Court also established its authority to strike down state laws found to be in violation of the Constitution. Before the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment (1869), the provisions of the Bill of Rights were only applicable to the federal government. After the Amendment's passage, the Supreme Court began ruling that most of its provisions were applicable to the states as well. Therefore, the Court has the final say over when a right is protected by the Constitution or when a Constitutional right is violated.〔"About the Supreme Court." USCOURTSGOV RSS.
