Grant, vacate, and remand (GVR)
When the Court "GVRs," it "grants certiorari," "vacates" the decision below, and "remands" a case to the lower court without hearing oral argument or deciding its merits. A GVR order is not accompanied by a written opinion addressing the merits of the case, but the Court usually provides some direction to the lower court by, for example, instructing it to reconsider its decision in light of a recent decision by the Supreme Court.
