Answer to Question 1

Answer: habeas corpus

Answer to Question 2

Answer: This is a discretionary writ issued by the highest court in a state, or by the U.S. Supreme Court, agreeing
to review the decision of a lower court. Only about 2 percent of all writs requested are granted by the
U.S. Supreme Court.
