Where this section sits in the code
  1. OK Code
  2. Title 12

When a judgment or final order shall be reversed on appeal,

either in whole or in part, the court reversing the same shall

proceed to render such judgment as the court below should have

rendered, or remand the cause to the court below for such judgment.

The court reversing such judgment or final order shall not issue

execution in causes that are removed before them on error, on which

they pronounce judgment as aforesaid, but shall send a special

mandate to the court below as the case may require, to award

execution thereupon; and such court, to which such special mandate

is sent, shall proceed in such cases in the same manner as if such

judgment or final order had been rendered therein. In cases decided

by the Supreme Court, when the facts are agreed to by the parties or

found by the court below, or a referee, and when it does not appear,

by exception or otherwise, that such findings are against the weight

of the evidence in the case, the Supreme Court shall send a mandate

to the court below directing it to render such judgment in the

premises as it should have rendered on the facts agreed to or found

in the case.
