A remand-for-retrial ruling isn't a final verdict β it means a higher court ordered the case reheard, and the real outcome depends on what happens next.
When a Korean court "remands a case for retrial" (νκΈ°νμ‘), headlines often compress it into "acquitted" or "verdict overturned." This guide doesn't judge any specific case β it walks through eleven procedural terms that show up in that coverage, each pointing to where you can read the official source yourself.
Every entry pairs a plain-language definition with a common misreading and a link to the relevant official site (the Supreme Court of Korea or the National Law Information Center). None of this substitutes for legal advice on an actual case β if you're dealing with a real dispute, talk to a licensed attorney about your specific facts.
