provisional
The term “remand” means “to send back,” and refers to just that – a decision by the Supreme Court to send a case back to the lower court for further action. When it remands a case, the Court generally includes instructions for the lower court, either telling it to start an entirely new trial, or directing it, for example, to look at the dispute in the context of laws or theories it might not have considered the first time around.
