|
“Litigation” is the term used to describe the legal process by which one party, a plaintiff or complainant, seeks a remedy for damages caused by another, commonly called a defendant. Any proceeding in a court of law where two parties are in an adversarial relationship is litigation. While any issue in the law can be a type of litigation, the two main types are criminal litigation and civil litigation. Criminal litigation cases involve defendants who are alleged to have violated criminal statutes. In a civil litigation cases, a lawsuit is brought by one party against another without any allegation that a crime has been committed.
