Yes, that's true of cases reviewed under the Court's appellate jurisdiction.
The Supreme Court has jurisdiction over cases involving questions of federal or constitutional law or US treaties.They don't have jurisdiction over matters involving state or municipal laws or state constitutions, unless the case involves a conflict between two states, or a law or ordinance repugnant to the US Constitution.They don't have jurisdiction over cases from state courts if the federal question (constitutional issue or matter of federal law) was not raised at trial and preserved through the appellate process.They don't have jurisdiction cases involving political questions, such as appeals of impeachment.They don't have jurisdiction over cases prohibited by the Constitution or by constitutional Amendment, such as conflicts between the citizens of one state and the government of another (per the 11th Amendment), unless the state(s) waive their 11th Amendment protection or a state official is sued by name.They don't have jurisdiction over cases on matters from which Congress has stripped their appellate jurisdiction, assigning it to another court.
