There is a set process. Cases do not simply go directly before The supreme Court.

They have to first go through the appropriate venue in whatever jurisdiction they originate in and go through trial and then after that if the results of that trial are not satisfactory then they can be appealed which would mean they would then go to a district court and then if they're not satisfied with that then they can petition the supreme Court to review the appellate Court's decision.

You're talking years and millions of dollars worth of lawyer fees for each case. Anyone with a drop of sense will attempt to settle the case long before it reaches the supreme court.
