2. The process of litigating a lawsuit 1. Writing a complaint A civil complaint is an important legal document that starts legal proceedings. Appropriate litigation claims, stated facts, reasons, and legal basis are important factors that determine the success or failure of a lawsuit. Therefore, when writing a complaint, you must have a good idea and design. Otherwise, it will not only affect the outcome of the lawsuit, but sometimes also cause loss of litigation expenses. 2. Filing the case: First, select a court with jurisdiction, and then submit relevant materials such as the complaint and evidence. After getting the court acceptance notice, wait for the court summons to notify the hearing. 3. Court session The court proceedings mainly include court investigation and court debate. The production and cross-examination of evidence during the court investigation phase are highly professional litigation behaviors. The debate stage is to fully explain the factual reasons and legal basis to support your claim. Its purpose is to persuade the judge and the other party to accept its point of view. Wait for the court's decision after the debate. 4. Judgment After the judgment is made, it is the job of the court. After the parties receive the judgment, if they are dissatisfied with the judgment, they must appeal promptly and initiate the second instance procedure. Otherwise, after the first-instance judgment takes effect, both parties to the dispute must perform in accordance with the judgment. 5. Performance After the judgment takes effect, if one party does not take the initiative to perform its obligations within the time limit determined by the judgment, the other party should apply to the court in a timely manner. The court that refuses to fulfill its judgment may take measures such as detention and fines, and in serious cases, criminal liability may be pursued.
