B. Heard by a court of appeal and there is a legitimate constitutional question.
Explanation: Certain courts, especially The U.S Supreme Court and most state preeminent courts, will have optional ward. By these rights these courts can pick which cases to get notification from among every court case displayed in advance. Long story short This method is designed so no court has the prudence to hear a case that is outside of the topic/meaningless.
