is it A

I think that's right, but I'm not sure. Another tutor may have more knowledge about this.

Yes, the correct answer is A. When an appellate court reverses a lower court's decision, it sends the case back to the trial level for further action consistent with the appellate decision. This means that the lower court's decision is overturned, and the case is sent back for a new trial or for the lower court to take some other action in line with the appellate court's ruling.
