The answer is A: Latin

Legal English, also Legal Usage. The register of the legal profession. This term involves styles and formulas of courts of law in all English-speaking countries and documents such as contracts and writs. Latin left its mark on the English language, for example, the term habbeas corpus (Latin 'you may have the body'.) Legal English has conventions and complexities, but they that help avoid ambiguities.

Legal English, or Legalese, relies on Latin heavily for its specialized vocabulary.
