On a technicality, means the overall consensus was one way, but because of some infringement on the rules the decision had to go against the overall consensus. An example might be if someone committed a crime, there are plenty of witnesses and it would be a solid case, but if the arresting office forgot to read the Miranda rights (required). The judge would be forced to throw out the case based on this technicality.
