What was the outcome of Joan of Arc's posthumous retrial?

Joan of Arc's posthumous retrial, also known as the Nullification Trial, took place in 1456. It was conducted at the request of Charles VII, who sought to clear her name. The court declared her trial illegitimate and her sentence nullified, formally exonerating Joan of Arc more than two decades after her death.
