A lawsuit (or very rarely litigation law ) is a civil action brought in a court in which the plaintiff, the party claims to have suffered losses as a result of the defendant's actions, demands a legal or equitable remedies . It requires the defendant to respond to the applicant's complaint. If the plaintiff is successful, the judgment is in favor of the plaintiff, and a variety of court orders can be issued to enforce a right, damages, or impose a temporary or permanent injunction to prevent an act or compelling a act. A declaratory judgment may be issued to prevent future legal disputes.
A lawsuit may involve dispute resolution matters of private law between individuals, business entities and nonprofit organizations. An application may also allow the state to be treated as if it were a private party in a civil case, as plaintiff or defendant in connection with an injury, or it can provide the state with a civil cause of action to enforce certain laws.
The behavior of an application is called litigation. The plaintiffs and defendants are called litigants and lawyers representing them are called litigants. The term may also refer disputes to criminal prosecution.
