d. worcester was immediately pardoned and released from prison.

Explanation:

In the case of Worcester v. Georgia, the Supreme Court ruled that states did not have the authority to impose laws on Native American nations. However, President Andrew Jackson refused to enforce the ruling. Georgia ignored the decision and continued to pass laws that limited Cherokee sovereignty. Worcester was not immediately pardoned; he was later pardoned by Georgia's new governor but only after serving some time in prison. Georgia did not respect Cherokee sovereignty even briefly after the ruling.

Answer:

C. the state of Georgia continued to pass laws that limited Cherokee sovereignty.
