I think the appropriate answer is to review the trial record for errors. Intermediate appellate courts serve as an intermediate step between the trial courts and the courts of the last resort in a state. Usually found in most populated states and helps alleviate the caseload of the highest state court. They normally review judgments/decisions of lower courts.
