Explain the particular function of the parties who are involved in litigation ?
The party referred to as the plaintiff is the person or company who has filed the lawsuit. The defendant is the person or company against whom the lawsuit has been filed. Once the lawsuit has been filed, this will bring into play the judge and jury. Some cases are tried by a judge without a jury. These are referred to as non-jury cases. It depends on the particular facts and type of case as to whether a party is entitled to have a jury decide the case. In cases that are tried without a jury, the judge decides the facts of the case and determines the particular law that is applicable to those facts and renders a decision.

The judge in the case will make rulings on questions of law. The judge will determine what law applies to the case. The judge will determine what evidence can be submitted t
