The minority opinion of a decided case
a. is the official explanation for the final ruling that will apply to the case
b. is unnecessary unless the power of judicial review has been employed
c. expresses the justification for a dissenting opinion of one or more judges
d. supports the ruling of the majority but rationalizes it with a different reason

The correct answer is C) Expresses the justification for a dissenting opinion of one or more judges.

In the Supreme Court, there are 9 justices who make decisions on the court cases they are presented with. Since only a majority is needed to rule on the constitutionality of the case, the other judges have the opportunity to write an excerpt explaining why they disagree with the majority explaination and ruling.
