They Vacated the decision
A decision made by a higher court sets a binding precedent for the inferior court(s).
A motion for reverse judgment is when a judge sets aside the ruling as if never there. The case would have to be first be appealed in the same court.
Ratio decidendi sets forth the legal reasoning for the decision in a case. (Obiter dictum is a judicial opinion or incidental comment that is not legally binding.)
No. A Statement of Decision is usually requested by the losing party after a bench (non-jury) trial before the judge alone. The Statement of Decision encompasses the ruling of the court, and addresses specific factual issues supporting the legal ruling. The Statement of Decision is important because it sets forth the required elements of each cause of action and basically sets the stage for any appeal. It is the court's Statement of Decision, but the court generally directs the prevailing party to prepare it. Generally, a proposed Judgment is submitted at the same time, but can be submitted later. Once the Statement of Decision is filed, all parties have a window of time to comment thereon or object thereto, and sometimes a hearing is held on the objections. Eventually, the court signs and issues its Statement of Decision, which the Judgment is then based upon. Once the Judgment is formally filed, either the clerk or often the prevailing party files a Notice of Entry of Judgment, which is then served on all parties. It is the Notice of Entry of Judgment which sets the date for subsequent court action, e.g., the parties have 30 days from Notice of Entry of Judgment in which to file an appeal.
Once the Supreme Court sets a precedent in its interpretation of a certain law, that decision becomes the pattern by which future tests of the same law must be judged. Therefore, if Congress passes a law that is contrary to a Supreme Court decision, and a case involving that law comes before the Supreme Court, the Court should strike it down based on the established precedent.

Precedent
The Chief Justice sets the agenda for meetings.
The best time of day to water outside plants including potted annuals is in morning, before the heat of the day sets in. This reduces the amount of water lost through evaporation, and also provides water for the plants to help them get through the heat of the day.
It is called "Advent."
