From Procedures of the Supreme Court of the United States ,

Since the Judiciary Act of 1925 ("The Certiorari Act" in some texts), the majority of the Supreme Court's jurisdiction has been discretionary.[3] Each year, the court receives approximately 7500 petitions for certiorari, of which approximately 150 are granted.[4] In theory, each Justice's clerks write a brief for the Justice outlining the questions presented, and offering a recommendation as to whether certiorari should be granted; in practice, most Justices (all of the current court, except Justices Stevens and Alito) have their clerks participate in the cert pool.

So if I understand that properly, the case has about a 2% chance of moving forward. Still, it's better than zero.

“So if I understand that properly, the case has about a 2% chance of moving forward. Still, it’s better than zero.”

Uh no, fortunately it is not a random selection process. The odds on this case are less than zero, if that were possible.
