Input::old for Form::file in laravel 4.2

I have this form that includes a Form::file along with other form stuff. say for example a Form::select what I'm trying to do is to retain the file inside the Form::file when the user made a mistake say for example the user did not entered a value for the Form::select.as of now i have this code, I tried to add the Input::old to my Form::file here is the code

{{ Form::file('cascUpload' , Input::old('cascUpload'), 
  array('id' => 'cascUpload' , 'type' => 'file' , 
 'accept' => '.doc , .docx , .pdf , .ppt , .pptx , .xlsx , .xls , .csv , .txt' )) 
}}

but it is not working. any ideas on what is wrong with my code? or on how I can improve it? thanks so much in advance!

If your form is using blade template and you have some kind of validation in your controller then you can redirect user back with all values inserted/selected just by using withInput() in your controller.

return Redirect('page_url')->withInput();

See more in documentation
