Summary
When filing a writ of certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court, you do not need to send a copy to the district court. To stay a judgment while awaiting a Supreme Court response, file a motion to stay with the original court, request a stay from the appellate court, or file an emergency application for stay with the Supreme Court. Supreme Court Rule 23 outlines the procedure for filing stay applications. You cannot resend a writ of certiorari but can submit additional documents. Supporting documents may include the original judgment, appellate decisions, writ of certiorari, legal briefs, evidence, and explanations of potential harm. Ensure compliance with Supreme Court guidelines when preparing documents.Full Conversation
