Q: Appeal was reversed and remanded with Direction, lower court conditionally reversed and remanded. What does this mean?

Yes I've appeal my case and appeals court said the Supreme Court reversed and remanded it with directions. Ventura County Superior Court says it was conditionally reversed and remanded. Doesn't Supreme Court overrule Superior Court because as of January 4th 2019 they convicted me of the case and I already have a violation hearing on the 21st of February. Is going public good idea because at this point they want to send me to prison. I've never been convicted of a violent crime I've never stole anything I've never done harm to anybody ever. It also says I've been in chuckawalla Valley State Prison since 2002 I could give you case numbers I can send you emails I can send you whatever you want to prove it. I went to court January 4th 2019 showed public defender he verified it from his office. told the judge and DA and they did nothing about it, went ahead and convicted me of the crime. set me up a probation violation hearing February 21, 2019. And I'm not MAKING IT UP!!!

A: Who's representing you on appeal, the DA's office? If so, they should inform you about the status of your case. If the appeals court reversed and remanded the decision with instructions to the lower court, that means they reversed the lower court's appealed decision, sent the case back to the lower court for a new decision with guiding instructions to the lower court on how they should best proceed to avoid another error in their decision-making process. You may want to hire a private attorney to review your case to give you a 2nd opinion. More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue.
