I find it interesting that some answered "appeal" when that was not one of the choices. In fact, in the VERY rare circumstances where an appeal to the US Supreme Court can be filed, it is not a request--the Supreme Court has to hear an appeal. Actually, the right answer is not there. The request is a petition for writ of certiorari. The Supreme Court issues the writ if it grants the petition.

Writ of Certiorari - The Supreme Court has to grant Certiorari to a case. They can turn down any case that they do not believe has merit.
