Ellen, a writ of certiorari is a writ of review. When a party files a petition for a writ of certiorari, they are asking the court to review the decision of another court. It is discretionary, not mandatory, for the Supreme Court to review a decision of a state court. The Supreme Court will only grant review or certiorari when there is a substantial federal question or questions in dispute.
