Does the US Supreme Court hold trials?
The US Supreme Court doesn't hold trials in the usual sense; it is a final appeal, really. Contested decisions are brought up from lower courts, and if the supreme court chooses, it takes on the cases to review and to make the final decision on the case. The only cases the Supreme Court currently considers under original (trial) jurisdiction are disputes between the states, but these don't follow a standard trial format.
