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.
Affirmed - Reversed - Remanded
"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
No, "reversed" means the lower court's decision is overturned, while "remanded" means the case is sent back to the lower court for further action or reconsideration.
If you mean the federal Court of Appeals, you file a petition for Writ of Certiorari with the Clerk of the Supreme Court of the United States of America pursuant to the rules of the Supreme Court. A court of appeals decision to "reverse and remand" is no different than any other ruling that an appellate court may make; therefore it may be appealed immediately. In fact, virtually every case that is reversed is remanded to the lower court for further action consistent with the ruling of the appellate court. The only time a reversed case is not remanded is when the appellate court itself enters judgment for the other party. The fact that a case is remanded to the lower court does not mean that the parties must return to the lower court first. If you mean a state court of appeals, the same thing most likely holds true; however with 50 different states, each allowed to have its own appellate rules of appellate procedure, you should look to that particicular state court's rules of procedure.
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 Maryland Court of Appeals decision was reversed.
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.
No it is not. If a criminal defendant had been convicted of two charges and the appellate court reversed in part by setting aside the conviction on one of the charges, there would be no remand because the defendant could not be retried on the count reversed. In a civil action, if a plaintiff won on two counts of a complaint and the appellate court reversed the judgment on one by reason of it not being supported by the weight of the evidence, it would not be remanded because the plaintiff doesn't get another chance to prove his case.
What was the matter concerning? More explicit information is needed in order to render an answer or opinion.
The case is re-tried, or perhaps (at the option of the prosecution) the charges may be dropped or reduced.
An appellate court can return a case to a lower court by issuing a remand order. This generally occurs when the appellate court determines that the lower court made errors that require further proceedings or reconsideration. The remand allows the lower court to address the issues identified by the appellate court and potentially correct any errors in the initial decision.
