Which of the following best describes what happens if the supreme court refuses to review a case? a. the decision must be sent to congress to determine whether the defendant may receive a retrial. b. the defendant may be granted a retrial in a district court. c. the defendant may appeal to another circuit court for review. d. the decision of the lower appellate court stands.

The correct answer is D) the decision of the lower appellate court stands.

The sentence that best describes what happens if the Supreme Court refuses to review a case is the decision of the lower appellate court stands.

In the case the Supreme Court does not consider a case to be reviewed, then the decision of the lower appellate court stands. And that is the end of the case. The Supreme Court considered the case is judged and that cannot be appealed again. The decision made was the final one. The Supreme Court might have considered that the case has no constitutional interpretations or was not relevant to review it.

D. The decision of the lower appellate court stands.

Explanation:

The US Supreme Court gets to decide which cases it will hear, the door is narrow only 80 of 80 thousand are heard by the Court. The justices need to grant a “writ of certiorari” that is the name of the decision by the Supreme Court. If four of the justices do not vote to grant the writ, the petition will be denied and the decision of the lower court will stand.
