I am sorry, your question does not give me enough information. The court has rejected an order. Did it have errors? If you can fix them, then you resubmit it for approval. It will be the original as the previous version was never approved, therefore, never part of the file. You just need to docket your presentation, assuming you present order is correctly completed.

Original. Corrected.

You will file the same judgment, you just want to correct the errors that were stated on the reject sheet. When you resubmit you also want to include the reject sheet from the court so they can look at those errors alone instead of the whole again.

In Utah, you simply re-submit as the original. You may wish, to avoid any confusion (some court clerks and judges are surprisingly dim) to submit with a cover note explaining that you are re-submitting it because the previous draft was rejected. A cover note is often an appreciated courtesy.

Just amend the errors and submit again.

Your question is too vague to give you an answer. If the judge said to submit a revised judgment, then you need to figure out what the problems were with the first one, draft a better order and send it to the court for entry.
