  Let $M$ be an $R$-module over a Noetherian ring $R$ and $\mathfrak{a}$ be an
ideal of $R$ with $c={\rm cd}(\mathfrak{a},M)$. First, we prove that $M$ is
finite $\mathfrak{a}$-relative Cohen-Macaulay if and only if ${\rm
H}_i(\Lambda_{\mathfrak{a}}({\rm H}_{\mathfrak{a}}^c(M)))=0$ for all $i\neq c$
and ${\rm H}_c(\Lambda_{\mathfrak{a}}({\rm H}_{\mathfrak{a}}^c(M))) \cong
\widehat{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}$. Next, over an $\mathfrak{a}$-relative
Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$, we provide a characterization of
$\mathfrak{a}$-relative sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules $M$ in terms of
$\mathfrak{a}$-relative Cohen-Macaulayness of the $R$-modules ${\rm
Ext}^{d-i}_{R}(M,{\rm D}_{\mathfrak{a}})$ for all $i\geq 0$, where ${\rm
D}_{\mathfrak{a}} = {\rm Hom}_R({\rm H}^d_{\mathfrak{a}}(R),{\rm
E}(R/\mathfrak{m}))$ and $d={\rm cd}(\mathfrak{a},R)$. Finally, we provide
another characterization of $\mathfrak{a}$-relative sequentially Cohen-Macaulay
modules $M$ in terms of vanishing of the local homology modules ${\rm
H}_j(\Lambda_{\mathfrak{a}}({\rm H}_{\mathfrak{a}}^i(M)))=0$ for all $0\leq
i\leq c$ and for all $j\neq i$.
