(3) Notwithstanding subsection (2) of this section, in its discretion and for good cause, the circuit court may render such judgment as may be proper, which may include remanding the case to the municipal court for further proceedings in accordance with the decision of the circuit court. (4) The trial court administrator of the circuit court shall provide a copy of the circuit court’s judgment to the municipal court: (a) Within 40 days after the date of entry of the circuit court judgment, if no party appeals from the judgment; or (b) Within 10 days after receipt of the appellate judgment issued by the appellate court resolving the appeal, if a party appeals the circuit court judgment. (5) If enforcement of the municipal court’s judgment was stayed pending disposition of an appeal to circuit court, the stay is automatically vacated when the trial court administrator provides a copy of the circuit court judgment to the municipal court under subsection (4) of this section.
