 writ of certiorari - definition of writ of certiorari in Encyclopedia
Certiorari is sometimes informally referred to as cert, and cases warranting the Supreme Court's attention as certworthy.
Historically, certiorari was a prerogative writ used to direct a lower court or tribunal to certify for review the "record" in the case.
In the federal courts, this use of certiorari has been abolished, and replaced by a civil action under the Administrative Procedure Act in a United States District Court, or in some circumstances, a petition for review in a United States Court of Appeals.

 Certiorari
Certiorari is ordinarily used to bring the record of a judicial or quasi-judicial body before a superior court in order to determine whether the inferior body acted within its jurisdiction and should be utilized where there is no other adequate remedy such as appeal.
In Missouri, the writ of certiorari is the same as at common law, and courts may properly adopt usages and principles applicable to the issuance of the writ as developed under the common law system, consistent with the letter and spirit of existing statutes and the constitution.
Ordinarily on a writ of certiorari, review is only of the validity of the lower court record, infirmities in jurisdiction and questions of the law; questions of fact or merits of the case are not reviewable.
