The Case Distribution Schedule identifies the dates on which petitions for writs of certiorari, along with corresponding briefs in opposition and reply briefs, will be distributed to the Justices. It also identifies the dates on which those petitions are scheduled to be considered by the Justices at conference, although this schedule is subject to change.
“Paid” lists include cases in which the petitioner pays the filing fee under Rule 38(a); those cases have a docket number from 1 to 5000 following the prefix for the Term (e.g., No. 20-325). “Ifp” lists include cases in which the petitioner has submitted the petition along with a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis under Rule 39; those cases have a docket number above 5000 following the prefix for the Term (e.g., No. 20-5754).
