The following excerpt is from Planned Parenthood of Greater Wash. v. U.S. Dep't of Health & Human Servs., 946 F.3d 1100 (9th Cir. 2020):
At times, a case presents with some issues amenable to first decision on appeal and with other issues not so amenable. In such circumstances, we can decide one issue and remand another. For example, in Quinn v. Robinson we decided to reach, in the first instance, a probable cause issue because we determined it was "clear," while we remanded a statute-of-limitations issue because it was "quite complex and involve[d] a discovery request as well." 783 F.2d at 815.
[946 F.3d 1112]
