Reexecuted

Reexecuted is the past participle and sometimes the past tense of the verb reexecute, meaning to perform or carry out again. The form combines the prefix re- with execute, signaling repetition or renewed action. In formal writing, it is often hyphenated as re-executed, though the unhyphenated form is common in modern usage.

In legal and administrative contexts, reexecution refers to the act of signing or re-signing a document to reflect changes, corrections, or reaffirmation of intent. This can apply to wills, deeds, contracts, or other instruments where a prior execution is amended or challenged. The exact requirements for reexecution—such as witnesses, notarization, or reaffixing seals—vary by jurisdiction and by the type of instrument. Reexecution helps ensure that the document remains legally effective and accurately represents the parties’ current intentions.

In computing and technology, reexecution describes running a program, process, or test a second time. Reexecution may occur after error handling, after applying updates or patches, or during iterative testing and debugging. It can also be part of resilience testing, where simulations or workloads are repeated to verify stability or performance under repeated runs.

The term has related forms, including reexecute (the verb in the base form) and reexecution (the noun form referring to the act of executing again). Its usage is generally clear from context, with legal, administrative, and technical domains applying specific conventions for reexecution and related terms.
