The Supreme Court of the United States has full discretion over the cases reviewed under its appellate jurisdiction. Appellants submit a "petition for a writ of certiorari," asking the Court to consider a case. If the Supreme Court believes the petition has merit, they may grant certiorari (grant cert) and issue a writ of certiorari (order to the lower court to send case records). When the justices grant cert, they are essentially granting permission to the petitioner to bring a case before the Court.

An appellate court will not hear an appeal if certiorari has been granted?
The US Supreme Court is an appellate court under most circumstances. If it grants certiorari, it will hear the case.This question only makes sense if you're trying to determine whether an intermediate appellate court will hear a case from a trial court if the case has been accepted on direct, or expedited, appeal to the Supreme Court. The answer to that question is no. Cases granted certiorari on direct appeal bypass the intermediate appellate court.

To ask for a review in a court of law is a what?
When you ask for a review in a Court of law you are asking for an appeal. That means that a lower Court (or some other established system of determining competing issues such as an arbitrator's decision) has made its decision and you don't agree with it and you ask a higher Court to review what the lower Court did to see if they made any mistakes. Some things can be appealed as a matter of right which means you are automatically allowed to an appeal. Some things can only be appealed with the permission of the Court. Some times neither side is happy with a decision and they both appeal. When an appeal is heard you may be entitled to an outright reversal, a modification, a referral back to the lower Court or a new trial. The appeal court could also affirm the lower Court's decision which means they agree with what the lower court did. Different states have different names for their courts and there are usually at least two levels of appeals. In the United States the top Court is the Supreme Court of the United States which has the final say on all appeals.
