Product Description
Product Description
While dealing with a difficult opposing party is not uncommon, at what point does a party’s conduct cross the line from arguably zealous advocacy to vexatious litigation? The cost to both an opposing party and the court of meritless litigation brought for the purpose of harassment, delay, and/or imposing unreasonable burden is real and significant.
