A court case is a legal dispute brought before a court for resolution. It typically involves two parties: the plaintiff, who claims to have been wronged, and the defendant, who is accused of causing harm. The case is presented to a judge or jury, who will listen to evidence and arguments before making a decision. Court cases can cover a wide range of issues, including criminal matters, where someone is accused of breaking the law, and civil matters, which involve disputes between individuals or organizations. The outcome can result in penalties, compensation, or other legal remedies.
