Is the case closed after the verdict?

The specifics will depend on the verdicts of several trials. If it is a first-instance judgment, the parties may appeal. If a party appeals, the second instance procedure will be required, and the second instance judgment will take effect. If both parties have no objections to the verdict, the case without appeal is closed. In addition, if the losing party fails to perform its obligations within the judgment period, it is an unsettled case, and the winning party can apply to the court for compulsory execution, which is also a compulsory execution case.
