Only a Constitutional amendment will have the power to make the Supreme Court do anything.
I think Article III Sec. 2, 2nd paragraph can be used by the Congress if they will do so to define somethings such that the Courts are limited in their scope....
In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.

Ahhhh, but you forget, the SCOTUS doesn't care about the Constitution. They like international law better.
