No, all cases referred to the Court are NOT conferenced. To the contrary, 99.5% are rejected without conferences. Plus, only cases that are briefed and argued are actually confedrenced.

Requests for Emergency Relief are "referred" to the other Justices when the ONE Justice who has the case things that relief MIGHT be appropriate. I've talked about this process for about four months, now.

Thanks for the clarification, John. Your years of dealing with the SCOTUS sure helps keep things in perspective for us.
