Can the lawsuit proceed anyway even if the request has been dropped?
- plorkyeran 10y agoNo, courts are not very interested in wasting their time with a lawsuit where the person suing isn't actually asking for anything if they win.
- belovedeagle 10y agoIANAL, but this sounds incomplete. Declaratory judgements are a thing. Presumably that doesn't apply in this case for various reasons.
- slededit 10y agoDeclaratory judgement are only for cases where the mere possibility of an adverse decision is materially impacting you. For example investors being nervous. Its not intended to be a way to make a point.
