Have there been instances were decisions in the Sanhedrin or Rabbinical decisions concerning Jewish practice have been reversed upon later review?

I was curious if there were examples or instances where one generation of Rabbis established an interpretation of the law which were followed accordingly, only to have another generation reverse the previous decision entirely.

    Are you asking about rabbinic decrees, or rabbinic interpretation of biblical laws? The question seems to be more about the latter, the tag indicates the former, and the recently posted answer also only addresses the former.

    I remember a passage in Berachot Yerushalmi in which the Sanhedrin ruled that tefillin must not be brought in a bathroom. So people would leave them outside. But they frequently got stolen. So the Sanhedrin reversed its ruling. I can't check right now but will later. If someone has the text, please quote.
