Remand Imprisonment is similar to the Norwegian practice of "Varetektsfengsling". It is essentially when the main suspect, in a criminal case in which the minimum sentence is 6 months, is believed to pose a flight risk, or to attempt to tamper with evidence. The suspect can then be jailed for a (relatively short) period of time. In this time the suspect is often deprived of visiting rights and also deprived of any communication other than to his attorney.
It is interesting to note, that although the suspect has been jailed, he is still considered innocent until proven otherwise.
Someone would be held "on remand". Or, "remanded in custody"...
remand
The court decided to remand the defendant to a drug treatment center.
Probation and custody - are two completely opposite situations ! Probation - is a period of supervised freedom while a case is being prepared for court. Custody - is a period of imprisonment - either before a court case (remand) or after trial (sentence).
Remand.

No. Veterans ssoc does not necessarily mean a good decision after a 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. If found guilty the amount of time you spend on remand is counted towards the amount of time you have to serve. People on remand are considered too dangerous to be released on bail.

The court of Appeals has three options after they have reviewed a case in appeal. They can affirm the original conviction and keep the status of the case unchanged. They can reverse the decision and remand the case back into the lower court system. They also can remand, change or modify the conviction.
To remand means to hand back to the care of a court or jurisdiction. So to remand to a high court means just that: to hand a case back to the high court.
I am a crown court clerk. We prepare the papers for cases, arraign defendants(ask them whether they are guilty or not),empanel jurors(swear them in) draw up orders(bail notices,remand,imprisonment and community orders). We generally run the court, call the cases on and with the help of an usher control the court. I find the job extremely interesting. Hope this answers the question.
