‘Res Judicata’: [Latin, A thing adjudged.] applicable in both the USA 🇺🇸 UK 🇬🇧 & the ‘Commonwealths’… and most courts systems across the world… 🌍

A rule that a final judgment on the merits by a court having jurisdiction is conclusive between the parties to a suit as to all matters that were litigated or that could have been litigated in that suit.

The U.S.A. 🇺🇸 legal system places a high value on allowing a party to litigate a civil lawsuit for money damages only once.

U.S. courts employ the rule of ‘res judicata’ to prevent a dissatisfied party from trying to litigate the issue a second time.
