To remand, in general, means to send back. An appeals court may remand a case to the trial court for further action if it reverses the judgment of the lower court.
In a criminal matter, a judge may remand into custody a person accused of a crime if, the judge finds that a there is reason to hold the accused for trial.
When a case is decided by a trial court, the losing party may appeal the case to an appellate court. If the appellate court finds that the trial court made a mistake, as a matter of law, then the judgment may be reversed meaning that the court is invalidating the trial court's decision. It is then remanded, meaning sent back to the trial court, so that a judgment in the losing party's favor will be recorded.
A reversed and remanded law case has been granted certiorari. In other words, the Supreme Court has reversed it, but also given it back to the lower court for another decision.
Not enouigh information is given to know in what context this phrase is being used. It can have several meanings depending on the circumstances in which it is applied.
It means the appelate court has reversed the trial courts finding (reversed) - and ordered the case returned to the lower court (remanded) - and has released (relinquished) its (the Appeals Courts) interest in the case back to the trial court.
Returning a case to a lower court means that the appeals judge has deemed that the case needs to be retried. The case may be said to have been reversed and remanded or just remanded.
Affirmed - Reversed - Remanded
This wording sounds like part of an appeals court decision. 'Affimed in part' - mean that the original decision/findings were found to be proper and correct. 'Reversed in part' - means that a portion of the decision/findings was found to legally insufficient. 'Remanded' - means that the case was returned to the originating court to review or reconsider its actions in the case and make it 'legally sufficient' to conform with the law.
The disposition of an appeal is the judge's final ruling in the case, or what he decides to do to it. The three most common dispositions are: Affirmed, in which the judge agrees with the lower court and the original ruling stands, Reversed, in which the judge disagrees with the lower court and invalidates that opinion, and Remanded, in which the judge sends the case down to a lower court for further action. Cases are often both reversed and remanded.
No. Reversed means the verdict is "un-done". Remanded means it is sent back down to the lower court for a new decision.
"Affirmed," meaning that the appellate court agreed with the ruling of the lower court; "reversed" (or "overturned") meaning that the appellate court did not agree with the ruling of the lower court; and "remanded for further proceedings" meaning that the case could not be resolved or fully resolved on appeal and requires further hearings or argument in the lower court.Affirmed - Reversed - Remanded
reversed and remanded
The case is re-tried, or perhaps (at the option of the prosecution) the charges may be dropped or reduced.
Whether or not it is good to have a case remanded depends on how you have made out so far in the case and whether the reason for remand was favorable to your arguments.
