Summary

The court affirmed the circuit court's refusal to order the release of additional guaranteed URT-adjustment funds after remand. It held that the prior mandate did not award those funds, the circuit court lacked authority to grant relief on an issue not decided in the first appeal, and the school districts could not revive an adverse ruling that they had failed to appeal. The court declined to decide whether a later statutory amendment rendered the dispute moot because the school districts could not prevail on their other arguments.
