Answer 2

The correct answer is C) whether the lower court ruling in the case conflicts with an earlier supreme court ruling.

The factor that the Supreme Court generally consider especially important when deciding which cases to review is whether the lower court ruling in the case conflicts with an earlier supreme court ruling.

If four of the nine justices of the Supreme Court agree to grant a petition, the Supreme Court would accept to review a case. It is not an easy or common situation in that the average cases that the Supreme Court accepts to review per year are 100 cases average of approximately 5000 cases sent. So yes, the factor that the Supreme Court generally consider especially important when deciding which cases to review is whether the lower court ruling in the case conflicts with an earlier supreme court ruling.
