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.

“To the contrary, 99.5% are rejected without conferences.”
That’s not right. Look at the Supreme Court’s docket. Since I don’t know of a way to browse all currently pending cases, do a search for “United States,” which will return a lot of hits. Now look at the dockets for those cases.

As I read the Supreme Court rules, cases are distributed as a matter of course, and that’s been my experience as well. In fact, just browsing through the first ten or fifteen cases involving the United States, I didn’t see a single case that wasn’t distributed for conference. In case you think cases involving the United States get special treatment, try searching for “Smith.”
