c. When a court decision establishes new law, that is called "setting a precedent". a. is wrong because almost every case they hear is appeal. b. is wrong because judicial review is when the court reviews a law passed by the legislature to decide whether or not it is constitutional; the court does not make new law. d. is wrong because when the court establishes new law, it's not necessarily a civil case; precedents can be set in both civil and criminal cases.
