Remand by an Appellate Court

U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York

Rule Set: Local Civil Rules of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York

Rule: 58.1

Jurisdiction: EDNY

Bluebook Citation: E.D.N.Y. L. Civ. R. 58.1

PRE-2024 COMMITTEE NOTE

The Committee recommends that the word “mandate” be added to Local Civil Rule

58.1 in order to clarify that the mandate of the Court of Appeals, when filed in the

Clerk’s Office of the District Court as provided in Local Civil Rule 58.1, automatically

becomes the judgment of the District Court. The mandate, which consists of “a certified

copy of the judgment, a copy of the court’s opinion, if any, and any direction about

costs,” Fed. R. App. P. 41(a), is the normal means by which the judgment of the Court of

Appeals is transmitted to the District Court.

2024 COMMITTEE NOTE

The Committee deletes unnecessary and redundant language in Local Civil Rule 58.1.
