I currently have a standard approval process with different levels of approvals which are not on the same level and if incase at any level an approval is rejected then on resubmission the record goes to the person who has rejected the record and the intial approval steps gets autoapproved (I currently have code written in apex for the auto approval).

But my issue is when the record is getting auto approved on resubmission it is also sending the email notifications too. Is there a way to stop sending those notifications using Apex? Thanks.
