1st: Every year, the U.S. Supreme Court receives thousands of petitions from lower courts to review appeals of certain cases. These applications are called petitions for writs of certiorari, and when SCOTUS decides to take a case it is commonly known as granting certiorari.
2nd: After the U.S. Supreme Court hears a case, the nine Justices take an initial vote on what to do with the case. After the votes are tallied, the senior Justice in the majority assigns the task of writing the majority opinion. That task can fall on another Justice in the majority, or on the assigning Justice himself (or herself).
Principle and Functions In Buildings:
Equality Under the Law- This is engraved on the west plaza of the building.
Establishment of Justice- There are columns that have Lady Justice who defends the innocent.
Separation of Powers- There are engravings in the courtroom that have two powers sitting side by side.
Checks & Balances- There is Divine Inspiration who holds a scale in her hand.
Architecture and Art of Buildings:
1. I chose the North Fountain because I really love water, so any place with water will be good for me! Not only that, it also looks very attractive and a nice touch to the whole building.
2. I also like the picture from the Third Game of the Yankees-Cubs World Series because I really love seeing old pictures from the past and all the amazing people that were alive back then. I wish I was in the era sometimes because it seemed so fun.
3. Lastly, I chose the picture of Michael Jordan because I used to watch him when I was little and admire how good of a person and player he was.
