Actually, the Supreme Court declined to review the case.

Let's be realistic here.

When SCOTUS declines to review a case, how much input does SCOTUS do before they decide not to review a case?

They don't flip a coin, you know. They did tons of research in order to make the decision NOT to review the case.

Now come on . . . you knew that.

As Shethink13 said further down

Uh, no...The Supreme Court refused to hear the case due to lack of jurisdicition. The Congress merely assigned jurisdiction to the federal courts, which is their Constitutional right.

Now come on...you knew that.

"They don't flip a coin, you know. They did tons of research in order to make the decision NOT to review the case."

I don't think that is true in this case. A single justice made the decision. This was done very quickly.
