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.
