Bridger, M. (2019). Civil litigation for dummies. Elringtons Lawyers. https://elringtons.com.au/2016/03/civil-litigation-for-dummies/
Litigation is a legal conflict involving two or even more subjects seeking specific court performance or damages compensation instead of criminal sanctions. The author further mentions that litigators are the lawyers who specialize in civil litigation. Bridger (2019) reiterates that civil litigation involves payment of money or even rectifying a broken agreement. Lastly, litigation commences by one party filing a complaint or claim, requiring discussion and determination of the case. 
Galanter, M. (1974). Why the "haves" come out ahead: Speculations on the limits of legal change. Marc Law and Society Review. https://www.jstor.org/stable/3053023
Galanter (1974) presents the legal system's basic architecture and the possibilities of using the system to ensure redistributive change. Government machinery and resources make the rich come first in a court of law, indicating the redistributive change. The affluent often interfere with the litigation process; hence courts acting in their favor. The One Shooter (OS) and repeat shooter (RS) claims seem to be too big and too small, respectively, making the court case favor those who have resources. Lawyers are part of the RS because they have excellent continuity, specialized skills, and talent regarding court proceedings, which makes the haves get justice faster. Lawyers who are in the RS category know the courts than individuals in the OS category, who includes individual parties that are in court for the first time. RS plays for rules in litigation over OS, hence exemplifying a favorable outcome. There are separate case boxes, including OS vs. OS, RP vs. OS, OS vs. RP, and lastly, RP vs. RP (Galanter, 1974). Lastly, rules favor culturally dominant interests, acting in favor of the 'have nots.'
