You haven't given enough information to answer this properly. Your options give several indications that you cannot appeal but it doesn't state what type of action it is. It also doesn't tell you if it is a decision that is protected by the constitution so you cannot select C. You do not define the court "of last resort" and what level of court it is so you cannot select A, or B. You also cannot select D because most federal appellate courts are ones that deal with the protection of the constitutional rights. Clarify the question and we may be able to answer it. Thank you
