Match the correct court term with the definition concerning the appeals process.
 
  Column 1:
  discretionary appeal
  direct appeal
  trial de novo
  habeas corpus
 
  Column 2:
  an appeal that is authorized by law
  a type of appeal in which the appellate court holds a new trial as if the prior trial never occurred
  an appeal that will be heard only if the reviewing court agrees to do so
  a means of challenging the constitutionality of ones confinement, best viewed as an alternative to appealing

Question 2

Match the term with proper definition concerning the selection of potential jurors.
 
  Column 1:
  venire
  challenge for cause
  voir dire
  peremptory challenge
 
  Column 2:
  individuals selected from the jury list are referred to as this term
  the process of selecting jurors for service
  a means of excluding prospective jurors who cannot be impartial
  a means of excluding prospective jurors with no reason offered
