Wouldn't it be the NY Superior Court here and probably never make it to the actual US Supreme Court?
Technically the US supreme court can stick their dick in anything, there's a legal option that allows them to just cut in whenever they feel like it.
There's no regular appeals process that reaches the US federal supreme court for a New York state criminal case though.
As far as I know, the Supreme Court can't get involved in a state matter until all appeals in that state have been resolved, and even then won't take up the matter unless there is some connection to Federal law (and that connection was raised at some point in the trial by one of the parties).
But this court might invoke the ancient rite of "Because I said so" to justify letting Trump off the hook, I suppose.
I think the Florida Supreme Court was still dealing with Bush v Gore when the Supreme Court jumped in. Although, I guess that one did have a more direct relationship to Federal law. But it was 100% bullshit, regardless.
Ah yes, Bush v Gore. I'm fairly certain that Y2K is where our current shitty timeline diverged from the good one.
No, it was 2012. The mayans were totally right, it just wasn't the sudden flip switch end of days people expected. :p
That's when the Matrix glitched out and now we're all living in human battery hell.
"Mr. Architect, please, try the Utopia setting again. I promise we won't reject it!"
If that wasn't tbe most boomer bullshit. "We met everyone's needs, and people still weren't happy." Fuck outta here, like you couldn't drop every person who ever lived naked on a beach with margaritas and nachos for them to spend eternity.
Personally, I blame the asshat that shot Bobby Kennedy.

A litigant who loses in a federal court of appeals, or in the highest court of a state, may file a petition for a "writ of certiorari," which is a document asking the Supreme Court to review the case.
So yes, they can't do it until all normal avenues are exhausted. I'm not sure it is required to have anything to do with federal law though.
This is only because how the process normally works. But if they really wanted to get involved there's not really much that could stop them
Yeah, the Supreme Court has nothing to do with this case and can't do anything about it.
Right, but you've forgotten the old laws of "Fuck you, poors."
