How do you appeal a decision made by the court of appeals for 'reverse and remand'?

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.
