This statement about the Supreme Court is true.

Explanation:

Clients or entities who are not happy with the jurisdiction and result of the lower courts can apply the request or petition at the U. S Supreme Court to hear their case. One can ask for the review of the case by asking it to grant a "writ of certiorari".

This means the lower court where the case was initially filed has to send a copy to the Supreme court for review. It generally never hears cases as such until the case is of national significance or the result of a case might harmonize a conflicting decision to settle or when it might have precedential value.
