This is possibly the most straight forward and easy to understand explanation of this. Thanks so much. :)

I don't think they hold much weight, and I heard SCOTUS doesn't even read them, they give them to law clerks to look through and pick out anything they might think is important.  I don't think that system gives an amicus brief much power at all
