The U.S. Supreme Court receives thousands of requests to hear cases each year but only chooses to review a small fraction of them. This is due to the limited time and resources available for the court to hear cases. The other choices are incorrect because important cases can be initially tried in lower courts, appellate courts do not usually hold new trials but review the decisions of lower courts, there are more than two levels of appeal in the federal court system, and the U.S. Supreme Court requires at least four justices to agree to hear a case.
