Civil Procedure II #22 Claim Preclusion (aka Res Judicata) Tuesday, Jun 27 2006
1L and Civil Procedure and Civil Procedure II and Neil Wehneman and University of Cincinnati College of Law 5:11 pm
We now turn to preclusion, where prior lawsuits can remove issues or claims from relitigation. Claim preclusion (aka res judicata) operates on the principle that you only get “one bit of the apple.” A plaintiff is forced to bring all of their claims and theories of relief relating to a transaction at once, or be forever barred.
