01

Subject

The official points derived from Article 202 of the Civil Procedure Law establish that when a higher court annuls an appellate decision that had insisted on a prior ruling for the same reasons prompting the original annulment and returns the case to the court of origin, that court is required to follow the cassation ruling and address the cassation points clearly and in detail. This principle is noted in the context of a public-rights cassation (no. 2447/2024) concerning tax.

02

Summary

Compliance with a cassation ruling must respect its substance rather than form; if the remanding court appears to comply procedurally but contradicts the cassation ruling in substance or fails to act in accordance with it, its decision must be annulled and the file returned again so the court can truly implement the cassation directives. This is an educational summary and not a judicial text or legal advice.

03

Practical significance

The rule requires lower courts to implement cassation directives fully and to address the grounds of cassation with sufficient detail; failure to do so risks further annulment and remand to secure faithful execution of the cassation decision.
