Abstract

The article focuses on the common law called certiorari that is issued by a higher court to its inferior jurisdiction requesting for case records needed to review legal judgments in Florida. It notes that the certiorari review started due to the need of the judicial power to review erroneous trial court orders for the good of the society. It notes that the state's Supreme Court's certiorari jurisdiction was eliminated in 1980 due to constitutional amendment.
