The correct answer here is the second option.

The main issue here was the fight over the extent of executive power and whether or not president Nixon need to to hand over tape recording that the court ordered him to deliver. The Supreme Court voted that Nixon had to hand over the materials related to the Watergate investigation. After this ruling, Nixon fearing impeachment, resigned.
