What is the process for obtaining an order of remand from an appellate court?

The process for obtaining an order of remand from an appellate court in Nebraska involves first filing a notice of appeal with the court. This notice must be filed within 30 days of the final judgment that was decided by a lower court. If the notice is timely, the appellate court will then review legal briefs prepared by both sides of the case. After reviewing the briefs, the appellate court will issue a decision either affirming the lower court’s ruling or ordering a remand. If the appellate court issues an order of remand, then the case will be sent back to the lower court. The court will review the appellate court’s decision and issue a new ruling that complies with the order of remand. If the lower court does not comply with the order, the appellate court can issue a writ of mandamus, which orders the lower court to obey its order of remand. If the lower court’s ruling is then appealed again, then the process of filing a notice of appeal, reviewing legal briefs, and issuing a decision or order of remand is repeated. The appeals process continues until one party receives a final ruling from the highest court in the state.
