Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the U.S. Supreme Court decides to hear an appeal in a tax case (or any case), it grants a writ of certiorari, which is a formal order from a higher court to a lower court to transfer the record of a case so that the higher court can determine whether to hear the case or not. Writ of appeal (A) is not a commonly used term, and writ of detainer (C) refers to a writ used to hold someone in custody. Writ of habeas corpus (D) is used to challenge the lawfulness of a detainee's imprisonment, and is not typically associated with tax cases.
