In a civil case they would be the plaintiff.
In a criminal case they would be the prosecution (the Crown).
In an appeal they would be the appellate.
Only the court, or an authorized court official, has the pwoer to issue and/or serve subpoenas. As a party to a case you can request that a subpoena be issued, but if it is in reference to the case at issue, it is HIGHLY unlikely the court will do so.
The plaintiff or petitioner.
Supreme Court :)
Literally means 'friend of the court'. That is a person not a party to a case who provides information to the court on a point of law, in an attempt to help the court make a determination on the matter
Typically, whoever lost the last appeal petitions the Supreme Court to hear the case; however, either party may file.If the Court grants certiorari (agrees to hear the case), the appellant (party appealing the case) has an advantage when filing briefs and during oral arguments because they get to go first and rebut (answer) the opposing party's argument after the other party has spoken. If a case is clearly headed to the Supreme Court on appeal, both parties attempt to gain an edge by preempting the other.
If you appeal the case to the Supreme Court, you lost in a lower court.Answer:That depends on whether you're the party appealing the decision (the Appellee or Petitioner) or the opposing party (the Appellant or Respondent). If you're petitioning the Court for a writ of certiorari, you're asking the court to review the case because you lost.If someone else is petitioning a case in which you were the opposing party, it means you won and your opponent is contesting the verdict.Every case has a winner and a loser. You didn't specify which side you were on, hypothetically.
The potential legal costs and consequences for the non-prevailing party in a court case may include paying the prevailing party's legal fees, court costs, and possibly damages. Additionally, the non-prevailing party may be required to comply with court orders or judgments, which could have financial or other implications.
The moving party is the party making a motion to the court. Either party has the ability to make any number of motions during a divorce case. The opposing party would refer to the party that did not make the motion.
In court cases in which a party of the case is unknown, hypothetical, or anonymous a fictitious name such as Jane Doe is assigned. The meaning of notice of dropping ÊJane Doe is that the court is removing that party from the case.
The appropriate Court of Appeals ( ie: US District Court of Appeals)
If you do not respond to a supeona, a court issued document, you can be charged with contempt of court.
It means the case against the defendant is being dismissed because (usually) the complaining witness has failed to show up in court for whatever reason.
