Please keep all your discussion on this matter in this thread. Your other thread has been reported for deletion as a duplicate.
You are going to have to provide details about what happened to you that gives rise to the question.
If you aren't willing to share that information on the internet I suggest you pose the question, in confidence, to an attorney.
The procedure question is general in nature. It is clear a citizen can do so in the US Supreme Court although it is unclear in that venue if said petition or writ has to be put before all justices or if it can be put before only one.
The rules are pretty clear, you file with the clerk of the appellate court in question. You'd don't have a general right to file extraordinary appeals. You have to show that the conduct of the court from where you are appealing was such an egregious departure from the rule of law to warrant it.
The Rules of Appellate Procedure are applicable to the SC.

You are speaking of Petitioning a certain Justice on the USSC because of their Circuit Allottment, for example, to issue a Stay of execution. State Courts, the whole court must be petitioned, as far as I know.
