Abstract
A “primer” is an elementary text that covers the basic elements of a subject and that is what this essay is meant to be: a brief introduction and an overview of the jurisdiction, practices, and procedures of the Supreme Court of the United States (that is the official and formal name of the High Court, although reporters and insiders use the acronym “SCOTUS”). It is intended for the curious novice who wants to understand how the Supreme Court operates.
