Remand (court Procedure)
Remand is when higher courts send cases back to lower courts for further action. In the law of the United States, appellate courts remand cases to district courts for actions such as a new trial. Federal appellate courts, including the Supreme Court, have the power to "remand cause and ... require such further proceedings to be had as may be just under the circumstances.". This includes the power to make summary "grant, vacate and remand" (GVR) orders.''Lawrence v. Chater'', (per curiam), p. 166. Appellate courts remand cases whose outcome they are unable to finally determine.

Aside from early experiments like '' Young and Innocent'' and '' Notorious'', the most famous early example of a film that extensively uses long takes is the 1948 ''Rope'', which was sh ...
