From page 9-The Court employs a “conveyor-belt” system in acting on petitions for review and non-emergency mandamus petitions. Once a petition is placed in the hands of the Justices on a given Tuesday, it begins moving along the conveyor belt. Unless it is affirmatively removed from the belt by one or more of the Justices, the petition is automatically denied on the Court’s Friday orders, 31 days after the Justices first received it. One or more of the Justices can remove a petition from the conveyor belt by voting to take some action other than denying it. "The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine."
