The formal role of the judicial branch in amending the constitution is option B. It has no formal role in the process.

The system of federal courts along with the judges that interprets laws made by the legislative branch constitute the judicial branch of the U.S. government. These laws are enforced by the executive branch.

At the top of the judicial branch are the nine justices of the Supreme Court.
