Best Answer

A case that is remanded is sent back to the lower court for a final decision. The appeal court who issues the remand has made a decision on some issue in the case, but has determined that the lower court is better able to decide the main issue: guilt/innocence, liable/not liable, etc.

What is the difference between bail and remand?

Bail is when you are released pending your court hearing. You are bailed against a bond (a sum of money). Remand is where you are not released pending your court hearing.
