Can a flag field be used in a procedure to determine prior block success

Question

I have a below stored procedure that has a IN and OUT parameter. The block
has structure as below.
In this procedure there are multiple inner blocks each with an individual
exception handler. I need to modify this to pass a flag field as a additional parameter
to this procedure such that should any of the inner block execution were to fail, the next execution should pass the control to the failed block (as in the previous successfully executed INNER blocks should not be re-executed).
How can I acheive this?
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE procname(some_in_variable IN datatype1,
                                             some_out_variable OUT datatype2)IS   
var1 datatype;
var2 datatype;
cursor cursorname IS
BEGIN
  IF some_condition then
     RAISE main_exception_encountered
  ELSE
     DECLARE -- BEGIN OF INNER BLOCK 1
     BEGIN
      IF CONDITION THEN
      ELSE
        raise some_excep;
      END IF;
     END;   -- END OF INNER BLOCK 1
     DECLARE  -- BEGIN OF INNER BLOCK 2
     BEGIN
      SELECT statements here
      exec some_procedure_name(param1, param2);
     exception
     END;   -- BEGIN OF INNER BLOCK 2
  EXCEPTION
    when some_excep then.....
EXCEPTION
  when main_exception_encountered...do something
END procname;

Ok. I plan on use the below code snippet inside every block prior to an exception being raised. This will set flag value to N when a block fails.
UPDATE processlogtable           
SET flagfield = 'N'
WHERE pk_field = 'somevalue';
COMMIT;The next time a new block is read it'll check for the flag, if it is Y then the block is executed. However, if the flag is N due to a failed block how can I make the procedure go back to that failed block?Do you really want to COMMIT all DML changes that caused an EXCEPTION?
