Certiorari review is discretionary and granted only for special reasons.

Evidence

A review on writ of certiorari is not a matter of right but of judicial discretion, and it will be granted only when there are special and important reasons therefore. The following, while neither controlling nor fully measuring the Court’s discretion, indicate the character of reasons that will be considered. — G. Alan Tarr, Judicial Process and Judicial…, 1517
