No. A Statement of Decision is usually requested by the losing party after a bench (non-jury) trial before the judge alone. The Statement of Decision encompasses the ruling of the court, and addresses specific factual issues supporting the legal ruling. The Statement of Decision is important because it sets forth the required elements of each cause of action and basically sets the stage for any appeal.

It is the court's Statement of Decision, but the court generally directs the prevailing party to prepare it. Generally, a proposed Judgment is submitted at the same time, but can be submitted later. Once the Statement of Decision is filed, all parties have a window of time to comment thereon or object thereto, and sometimes a hearing is held on the objections. Eventually, the court signs and issues its Statement of Decision, which the Judgment is then based upon. Once the Judgment is formally filed, either the clerk or often the prevailing party files a Notice of Entry of Judgment, which is then served on all parties. It is the Notice of Entry of Judgment which sets the date for subsequent court action, e.g., the parties have 30 days from Notice of Entry of Judgment in which to file an appeal.

What does judgment of the court mean?

That means the same as the decision of the court. It is the same as the judgement of the court. It is the same as the finding of the court. It is the same as the verdict of the court.


Can a judgment issued in Federal Court be used in a Civil case against the same person?

Yes it can. But as far as it being a slam dunk for the same judgment to be issued, no. Whoever is doing the suing can only use the decision to support their position and maybe buttress their position to influence the decision handed there in the civil court.

Does collateral estoppel prevail and be upheld when default judgment is entered in a prior case of same issues?

Collateral estoppel may still apply in subsequent cases even if a default judgment was entered in a prior case on the same issues. However, the court will need to determine if the default judgment resulted from a deliberate decision not to contest the issues, which could impact the application of collateral estoppel.


A hasty judgment is seldom an accurate one?

This could be referring to coming to a judgment before hearing the full story from all sides - pre-judging could lead to the wrong decision. The phrase `look before you leap` says much the same thing, I think.


Can a landlord sue you for damages if they have already received a default judgment?

Maybe, it depends upon the specifics of the case, for example if there were more then one debtor the plaintiff should have sued both at the same time although in some US states that is not a requirement. If the second suit pertains to the same issue as the first where a default judgment was entered, the first judgment will automatically be quashed and the decision made at the new hearing (trial) will take precedence.


Is space research is waste of time?

No it is not. It is the single most promising research mankind has ever worked on. "Waste" is a subjective term, and a matter of opinion and judgment.

What is the difference between 'accede' and 'agree'?

"accede" carries the connotation that you might not be of the same opinion as your conversation partner on a given topic, decision, or plan of action, but will bow out of any further dispute and agree against your better judgment. "agree" carries the connotation that you are of the same opinion as your conversation partner on a decision made or conclusion come to.
