Marta, a 27-year-old Hispanic woman, pressed charges of sexual harassment against Horatio, a politician. The case became sensational because the accused was one of the strongest candidates in the upcoming elections. In the case's final stage, the United States Supreme Court issued a verdict that cleared Horatio of all charges on the grounds of lack of evidence that a law was broken. The ruling spurred angry protests from many interest groups, especially Hispanic women, and they wanted the verdict reversed. According to the prevalent system, which of these could potentially overturn the verdict in this case? a. a law passed by Congress
b. a petition from the United States Women Rights Council
c. an appeal from the minority population
d. a ruling by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
