But all you need to file a petition for cert is a losing district court case and a losing circuit court case. And God knows we have more than enough loses everywhere.
I think you have to have someone qualified to present the case before the Supreme Court as well. I was reading the SC rules a few weeks ago, and I think even the person that files the Writ of Certori must be qualified in some way. I'm guessing one can hire that person. Not sure the average Pro Se joe can easily qualify in a quick timeframe.
Pro se litigants are deemed qualified. The stamp on the brief makes it look like something. Yet it has as much chance of being granted cert. as a fair election being conducted.
It's on the docket for cert petition.

I may find out. I've got a case in the Circuit Court now that I may need to try to get to SC at some point.
