Yes. The US Supreme Court has discretionary authority to issue writs of mandamus when the case falls under their jurisdiction. Supreme Court Rules, Rule 20, outlines the conditions under which the Court may issue such a writ.
A Writ of Mandamus (Latin, "we command"), classified as an Extraordinary Writ, is an order compelling a public official, corporate officer, or agency to take a specified action within their scope of responsibility.

The most important effect of Marbury v. Madison, (1803), is that it affirmed the Supreme Court's right of judicial review and set a precedent for future cases. Judicial review is the power of the Court to evaluate laws relevant to cases before the court to determine their constitutionality, and to nullify (overturn) any they find unconstitutional.In Marbury, the Supreme Court decided Section 13 of the Judiciary Act of 1789 was unconstitutional because Congress had overreached its authority by granting the Court the right to issue all writs of mandamus, which contradicted the language of Article III of the Constitution.Case Citation:Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803)
No. In the opinion of the Court, Marshall declared Marbury was entitled to his commission, but that the Supreme Court didn't have original jurisdiction to issue the writ of mandamus Marbury requested. Marshall explicitly stated Marbury would have to refile his case in a lower court first, then appeal to the Supreme Court if he failed to get relief at that level. Marbury never refiled his case.Case Citation:Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803)For more information, see Related Questions, below.

The ruling in Marbury v. Madison, (1803) are related to the three questions posed to the Court:Has the applicant a right to the commission he demands?The Court determined that Marbury had a right to his commission, per An Act Concerning the District of Columbia that Congress passed in 1801, as well as Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, which granted the President the right to make judicial nominations. Marbury's nomination had already been approved by the Senate, then signed an sealed by the former President, making it official.If he has a right, and that right has been violated, do the laws of his country afford him a remedy?Because the answer to the first question was that Marbury was properly appointed as a justice of the peace, his legal rights had been violated when Madison withheld the paperwork necessary to assume office.Further, the laws of the United States afforded Marbury a remedy to this violation.If they do afford him a remedy, is it a mandamus issuing from this court?The Supreme Court determined it did not have original jurisdiction over the case, but appellate, and therefore could not issue a writ of mandamus. Marbury had to initiate legal action against Madison in the lower federal courts before the Supreme Court could review his case.This decision was based on the Court's determination that the Judiciary Act of 1789, in which Congress delegated to the Supreme Court original jurisdiction over cases involving the federal government, was partially unconstitutional because it granted the Court powers not specified by the Constitution.Part 3 of the Marbury decision established the high court's right of judicial review over legislation passed by Congress and the President, as well as the power to overturn laws deemed to be unconstitutional.Case Citation:Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803)
Decisions of the US Supreme Court affect the rulings and procedures of EVERY other court in the country, right down to the municipal level.
Yes it can be appealed because under court rules it is a final order or judgment. However, there is no right to have the appeal heard by the US Supreme Court unless that court decides to hear it.

There is no telling which case or what kind of a case the Supreme Court will hear. If a case is simple, it never will get to the Supreme Court. Cases that reach the Supreme Court have gone through one or more appeals processes. Sometimes a appeal reaches the Supreme Court when a federal court of appeals has made a ruling different from another federal court of appeals. In that case, the supreme court is asked to certify an issue. That is a fancy term meaning to play referee. The Supreme Court certifies an issue when it takes up an issue where district courts of appeal have made different rulings concerning the application of the same law. (Sometimes the Supreme Court refuses to take up the issue. In that case it simply states, "Cert. Denied.") Normally, all cases that reach the Supreme Court have come from the Federal Courts of Appeal or the Highest State Court. However, the Supreme Court reserves the right to sit as a court of original jurisdiction. The last time the Supreme Court granted a writ of Habeas Corpus was 1924. It retains that right. I doubt if any member on the Supreme Court has any idea under what conditions that would happen. Still, it retains that right.
Writ of Mandamus can be filed, as per our constitution under Article 32 in the Supreme Court, and under Article 226 in the High Courts of the States. All the writs known as the constitutional remedies can be filed under Article 32 and Article 226 of the constitution, if there is any violation of fundamental rights guaranteed under Part-III of the constitution. Writ of Mandamus is one remedial right. Writ of Mandamus literally means "We Command" According to the Writ of Mandamus can filed for the performance of the legal duty for which the person has a legal right. It is used for public purposes and to compel performance of public duties. Mandamus lies not only against executive authorities, but also against judicial and quasi-judicial authorities.

Trial by jury is a right in the lower courts that does not apply in appeals courts or the Supreme Court. The jury makes findings of fact and fact is no longer in issue on appeal.
In Marbury v. Madison, the US Supreme Court established the principle of judicial review, asserting its power to review and potentially invalidate laws passed by Congress as unconstitutional. Chief Justice John Marshall reasoned that the Judiciary Act of 1789, which granted the Court the power to issue writs of mandamus, conflicted with the Constitution, making it void. This case solidified the Court's authority to interpret the Constitution and set a precedent for judicial review in the United States.
