Answer:

The answer is b. State courts of last resort have seen a growth in their role in policymaking.

Explanation:

Devolution is the statutory delegation of powers from the central government of a sovereign state to govern at a subnational level, such as a regional or local level. It is a form of administrative decentralization.

On a state level, the court of last resort means that the state court maintains the highest and final legal authority as well as the managing court for each state's judicial system within that particular state.

Therefore this delegation of power causes the cours of las resourt to have more independence as well as responsibility for policy making.
