A quick definition of review hearing:

A review hearing is a type of court session where a judge listens to arguments and evidence from both sides to make a decision about a case. It can be about many different things, like child custody or whether evidence can be used in a trial. Sometimes witnesses will speak at a hearing. It's like a meeting where everyone talks about what they think should happen.

A more thorough explanation:

A review hearing is a type of legal proceeding where a judge or decision-maker reviews a previous decision or order to determine if it should be changed or modified. This can happen in various types of cases, including family law, criminal law, and administrative law.

For example, in a child custody case, a review hearing may be held to determine if the current custody arrangement is still in the best interest of the child. In a criminal case, a review hearing may be held to determine if a defendant's sentence should be modified based on new evidence or circumstances.

Another example is in administrative law, where a review hearing may be held to review a decision made by an agency or government body. This can include a hearing to review a decision on zoning variations or to review the admissibility of DNA evidence in a murder case.
