    When there are conflicting decisions on the same issue by different court of appeals and when there is a rulling based on racial discrimination.

    Explanation:

    A writ of certiorari is simply an order a higher court such as the Supreme Court gives for them to evaluate the decisions and processes in a lower court. This enables the higher court to ascertain if there are wrongdoings in the process. Cases have been brought to the U. S Supreme Court on a regular basis through this method and they have granted only about 1.1% of over a thousand cases.

    Writ of certiorari can be issued when a court of appeals in the U. S has made a decision in court which is conflicting with the decision made by another court of appeals in the same country, on the same issue. The losing party in both scenarios here can appeal to the Supreme Court.

    Also, where there is an appeal court ruling that does not favor a citizen on a basis of racial discrimination with no precedent, the decision can be appealed. Similar incident happened in the case by Ricky Brown, Raishawn Morris, Charles Battiste against the City of Oneonta, New work in which it was alleged that the enforcement officials carried their tasks while targeting minority members of the area for interrogation based on race.
