Question

remand The state supreme court had remanded the case to the superior court, instructing it to consider the new evidence. rɪˈmænd

Accepted Answer

(1) To order a case sent back to another court or agency for further action. (2) To send a prisoner back into custody to await further trial or sentencing. Remand means “order back” or “send back.” After losing a case in a lower court, lawyers will frequently appeal it to a higher court. If the higher court looks at the case and sees that the lower court made certain kinds of errors, it will simply remand it, while telling the lower court how it fell short the first time: by not instructing the jury thoroughly, for example, or by not taking into account a recent related court decision
