Judgment

In civil procedure, a judgment is the official decision made by a court at the end of a lawsuit. It resolves the dispute between the parties involved, determining their rights and obligations. This can include decisions on who wins or loses the case and any associated penalties, damages, or remedies. A judgment is usually documented in writing and can be enforced, meaning the winning party can take steps to ensure the losing party complies with the court's decision. It represents the conclusion of the court's process for that particular case.
