How does a case reach the supreme court which is not under their original jurisdiction?
The Supreme Court ultimately has jurisdiction over EVERY case heard, provided the case involves a preserved question of federal or constitutional law. Also state law. A case reaches the Supreme Court through the appeal process. If a case originated in state court it's appealed from the court of original jurisdiction to a state appeals court, then that decision is appealed to the state Supreme Court, and from there to the U.S. Supreme Court. If it's a federal case it originates in Federal District Court, goes to the Circuit Court of Appeals, and from there to the Supremes. Occasionally, the court may agree to hear a case directly if it has national significance. Remember the Court's infamous role in the election of 2000.
