What is the meaning if some body says "No findings are made" in legal
terms?
I suppose the answer would change depending on the context. I assume (based
on no evidence whatsoever) that you are referring to a court judgment which
has not been supplemented with any written court description of the specific
finding of fact on which the verdict is based.
After any court judgment is announced, any party who intends to appeal may
request that the court issue findings of fact. Those findings are in a
written document, and can be challenged on appeal, to prove that the
judgment was wrong because it was based on incorrect findings of fact. If
no findings are requested and none are written, the appeals court will
usually presume that the findings of the court were correct.
Sometimes the finding are very long, as in: U.S. v. Microsoft:
http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/cases/f3800/msjudgex.htm
Sometimes the finding are short and sweet, but I didn't find an example in a
few minutes of searching.
