The prefix re- is Latin in origin and means again. The root word -mand, also from Latin, means order. Together, the combined prefix re- and root word -mand would mean to order again.

Remand means to place someone on bail or in custody, espcecially when a trial is adjourned. So, you can think of the judge ordering someone to do something.
