O'Connor, Sandra Day. The Majesty of the Law. Reflections of a Supreme Court Justice. New York: Random House, 2004.

Former Associate Justice O'Connor gives a comprehensive history of the United States justice system from its beginnings with the Magna
Carta to the Supreme Court's progression and development to its current form. O'Connor highlights influential justices like Chief Justice John
Marshall, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., and Thurgood Marshall. She also discusses important court rulings to include Brown vs. the Board of
Education. Because both the Supreme Court's deliberation process and personal opinions about controversial topics are off limits for any
justice to discuss publicly, this book makes an excellent, unbiased resource for anyone seeking to learn more about the nation's courts.

Answer:

C. It summarizes and evaluates the source used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Annotations are used in academic paper's bibliography so as to make sure the summarized details of the book are presented in the paragraph. This allows the readers to know what they are dealing with and also presents a sense of what the paper is about.

In source citations, annotated bibliographies are mainly included to give the readers an insight into what is being dealt with in the paper. It also presents an interesting scope of what to be expected, leading the readers to a much more like a 'trailer' version of what the paper will be presenting. Thus, the correct answer is option C. The annotation in the bibliography summarizes and presents an evaluation of what sources are used.
