What Is A Pending Lawsuit And Pendency?
- Pendency is the state of the same lawsuit that has already been filed and is ongoing, and this is now stated as a condition of litigation in the CCP. The same case is used to refer to cases with the same parties, cause and subject matter.
- A pending lawsuit, on the other hand, is defined as the pendency of a lawsuit in a legal sense, in other words, the continuation of the lawsuit. A pending case remains pending until the case is closed or a final judgment is rendered. In other words, the fact that a case is pending means that a decision has not yet been made and finalized.
