The SC has total control over the cases that it hears. If it doesn't want to touch an issue, it doesn't have to do so.
However, usually one of the reasons the SC will hear a case is if the Districts have contrary rulings on the same issue.
I have to believe that the current make-up of the Court gives us a slight edge. The next President will get to make several appointments, especially if he's a two termer.
