Question

True or False: If the Court of Appeals remands a case, that means the court says the verdict was right.

Answer 1

False. When a Court of Appeals remands a case, it typically indicates that the court found some error or issue with the original trial or verdict that needs to be addressed. A remand often sends the case back to the lower court for further proceedings, which may include a new trial or reconsideration of certain aspects of the case. The appellate court does not necessarily endorse the original verdict; it may be questioning its validity or the process used to arrive at it.
