Abu Dhabi: Saudi Arabia plans to reform the legal system to restrain malicious, fictitious litigation and provide some comfort to those faced with the cost and frustration of defending repeated, unmeritorious actions instigated by the same party, local media reported.
Malicious litigation, legally known as vexatious litigation, is legal action, which is brought solely to harass or subdue an adversary. It may take the form of a primary frivolous lawsuit or may be the repetitive, burdensome, and unwarranted filing of meritless motions in a matter, which is otherwise a meritorious cause of action. Filing vexatious litigation is an abuse of the judicial process and may result in sanctions against the offender.
