IMO the correct is B because it brings the example modifier such as closer to the subject being modified. C has only that changes the meaning, d is passively written, e is long and not x buy y is not written correctly.

I'd go for B. The question modified courts with an example (injunctions) and that is inappropriate. Choice B conveys stuff in the right manner and the others are faulty
