Subject
The study addresses the consequence of a cassation decision that quashes a judgment and remands the case to the same appellate court, noting that Articles 182/4, 201 and 202 are procedural/public-order provisions considered mandatory.
Summary
The case law affirms that these provisions are binding and cannot be disregarded, limiting judicial discretion on procedural matters. Article 201, in particular, indicates that when the appellate court that issued the quashed judgment is asked to reconsider the case, it must hear the matter by oral pleadings if it previously conducted such pleadings, rather than merely performing a paper review.
Practical significance
Appellate courts must hold an oral hearing upon remand to the same bench when a prior oral hearing took place, ensuring adherence to mandatory procedural rules and protection of public-order procedures. This is an educational summary only; it is not judicial text nor legal advice.
