Line 80: == Range of certs granted == The lede had stated that the court grants "only 75-80" certs in a typical year. Editor [[User:Needforspeed888\|Needforspeed888]] changed that to "fewer than 100", with an edit summary stating the Court had been granting fewer cases (which the edit would have made less clear). After I reverted, it was changed to a ''larger'' range of "50-90". In any case, I went to the ~~citation~~ paper cited as a source, and the only reference I can find to the number of certs granted appears in page 67, Section 10.2, where it says "In a typical year, the Court grants certiorari in about 80 of the more than 7,000 cases in which Supreme Court review is requested." So this citation does not support a claim that the number has dropped off, and does not support a range of 50-90; it also did not really support the range of 75-80. Looking at the table in the [ https://www.scotusblog.com/statistics/ SCOTUSBlog Stat page] (under "pace of grants"), looks like OT22 had about 60 grants, OT21 had about 67, OT20 about 71, OT19 about 61; but this is [[WP:Synthesis]]. We either need a better source, or the text needs to be changed to what the source actually states, which is "about 80".
