No. Reversed means the verdict is "un-done". Remanded means it is sent back down to the lower court for a new decision.

What does disposition of appeal mean?

The disposition of an appeal is the judge's final ruling in the case, or what he decides to do to it. The three most common dispositions are: Affirmed, in which the judge agrees with the lower court and the original ruling stands, Reversed, in which the judge disagrees with the lower court and invalidates that opinion, and Remanded, in which the judge sends the case down to a lower court for further action. Cases are often both reversed and remanded.


Return a case to a lower court?

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.


What does it mean when a case is vacated and remanded?

Previous answer was partially right. The "reverse and remand" or "vacate and remand" are from an appellate court decision based on a previous courts decision. Remand has nothing to do with "remanding" the person into custody, and the judgment of reverse or vacate can apply to either te sentencing / convinction or both, but it is not seperate. ( reverse doesn't just apply to crime and remand apply to sentencing ) When a sentence is vacated, it means the previous courts decision is void. When it is "reversed" it means the previous court was wrong, and the opposite decision should have been affirmed. However, Once a decision is made, the remedy or actions to correct the wrong judgement must also be re-addressed. ( I.E. you get wrongfully convicted of 1st degree murder, but still committed a crime resulting in death) Once the decision that your 1st degree murder charge was erroneous is made, your case (Not your person) is remanded (or sent back) to the previous court, to either retry the case based on the new info from the appellate court, or is remanded to a previous court to correct sentencing based upon the findings of the appellate court. judgement affirmed means that nothing needs to change and no errors were made in the previous courts procedure / decision.

After a reversed and remanded from appeals court will you be released?

If a case is reversed and remanded from an appeals court, it typically means that the higher court found an error in the lower court's decision and sent the case back for further proceedings. Whether or not an individual will be released depends on the specifics of the case, including the reasons for the reversal and the instructions given to the lower court. Release is not guaranteed; it may depend on the outcome of subsequent hearings or retrials.


What does it mean when a case is reversed and remanded case remanded for resentencing otherwise affirmed?

It looks like the decision of an appeal court. It's too bad that the question is not posed clearly. An appeal court reverses a decision when it changes the decision that is being appealed from. An appeal court affirms a decision when it decides not to change it. A matter before the courts is "remanded" when it is put over to another day. The word "remanded" is particularly used in criminal matters especially where the accused person is in custody. My guess is that the story goes something like this: A person has been convicted of a crime and sentenced to a term in jail. While he is serving his sentence, his lawyer has launched an appeal both against the conviction and against the sentence, stating that the jail term was too long. The appeal court has rejected the appeal against conviction but has accepted the appeal against sentence. The sentence "is reversed" and the prisoner remanded in custody until the lower court can impose a more appropriate sentence, "resentencing". However, the conviction stands; it is "otherwise affirmed".
