Reform-oriented litigation

Reform-oriented litigation refers to legal cases brought by individuals, groups, or organizations to challenge existing laws, policies, or practices with the goal of bringing about societal change. These lawsuits aim to address systemic issues such as inequality, injustice, or unfair treatment by seeking court rulings that modify, eliminate, or enforce specific legal standards. Essentially, this type of litigation uses the legal system as a tool to push for reforms that improve the law and benefit the public or marginalized communities.
