Appellate review is the process by which courts with appellate jurisdiction take jurisdiction of matters decided by lower courts. The normal and preferred way of seeking appellate review is by filing an appeal of the final judgment in a case. However, appellate review of lower court decisions can also be obtained by filing a petition for review by extraordinary writ.
