A return date in court is the date on which a party is required to appear in court for further proceedings in a case.

Yes, sort of. They don't remand the decision, but the case. "Remand" means to return a case to a lower court for further disposition. Usually this follows the reversal of the lower court's decision or identification of a judicial error during the trial or at sentencing, so the case may be "remanded" for a new trial or resentencing. The appellate court always specifies the reason for their decision, and the action they expect to be taken.

A court case brought from a lower court to a higher court is called an appeal. In an appeal, the higher court reviews the decision made by the lower court to determine if any errors were made in applying the law.
When a case is reversed and remanded by the Supreme Court, it means that the decision made by the lower court is overturned, and the case is sent back to the lower court for further proceedings or a new trial.

If they win on appeal, the appellate court either rules in their favor or remands (returns) the case back to the lower court to redecide.

Used when a lower court is not clear about the procedure or rule of law that should apply in a case. The lower courts ask the Supreme Court to certify the answer to a specific question matter.
Here is one example to answer this question. A New York State appellate court can chose to review a case from a lower court or it let the verdict of the lower court stand. If it does agree to review a case where the defendant was found guilty in a lower court, then the case is returned to the lower court. The prosecutor can chose to re-try the case or decide not to. Allot of that decision depends on the reason the appellate has sent the case back to the lower court. If as example, the appellate has ruled that the defendent was not properly read his/her Miranda rights upon arrest, this cannot be corrected so the case most likely will be dropped.
