The correct answer is option B.) "He can ask for a mistrial".

Explanation:

A mistrial is a trial rendered invalid through an error in the proceedings. A plaintiff in a case such as Ariel Yosef could appeal for a mistrial by presenting evidence to prove that for instance the judge was secretly influenced by the defense, the evidence was tampered, the jury was not unbiased, among others. In case of prove that a mistrial took place, a second trial for Mariana Gomez should be appointed.
