Definition of litigant
Definition: A litigant is a person or entity that is involved in a lawsuit. This can include both plaintiffs (the person bringing the lawsuit) and defendants (the person being sued). However, it does not include attorneys or witnesses.
- John is a litigant in a lawsuit against his former employer for wrongful termination.
- The company is a litigant in a lawsuit filed by a customer who was injured while using their product.
In both examples, the individuals or entities mentioned are involved in a legal dispute and are therefore considered litigants.
