Answer:

c)

Explanation: After the Supreme Court rules, justices may write opinion papers. A justice who disagrees with the ruling may write a dissenting opinion. The justice will state why he or she dissents, or disagrees. A justice who agrees with a ruling, on the other hand, may write a concurring opinion. (usatestprep)
