Litigation. An action brought in court to enforce a particular right. The act or process of bringing a lawsuit in and of itself; a judicial contest; any dispute. When a person begins a civil lawsuit, the person enters into a process called litigation. Under the various rules of Civil Procedure that govern actions in state and federal courts, litigation involves a series of steps that may lead to a court trial and ultimately a resolution of the matter.
Lawyers often simply refer to certificates of pending litigation as a CPL. The litigation process known as a certificate of pending litigation is a creature of statute and not of the common law, though derived substantially from the common law doctrine of lis pendens.emoving a certificate of pending litigation before trial of the issue can be difficult and mostly set out in relevant legislation. Generally, as stated in Tkalych v Tkalych : âA lis pendens will be vacated only where it is clear that the plaintiff's claim can in no circumstances give him/her any right in the land.
