OOps I stand corrected I guess when you reqest certiorari a its called Certiori.
I'd still like the information on a case the court actually HEARD, Requesting a writ of certiorari doesnt mean the court ruled on anything.
"While a decision to deny cert. lets the lower court's ruling stand, it does not constitute a decision by the Supreme Court on any of the legal issues raised by the case."
