    E. writ of certiorari

    Explanation:

    The appellate court asks or requests the lower court to deliver or send its records on the case to the higher appellate court so that the appellate court can review it.

    The term 'certiorari' is a Latin word and it means "to be more fully informed." It is an order made by the higher court to the lower court.

    Thus the correct option is (E).
