Repeat player suits against one-shotters dominate civil litigation

Evidence

RP versus OS Many repeat players have legal relationships with large numbers of one-shotters. Owners of apartment complexes, for example, enter into contracts with large numbers of tenants, and finance companies attempt to collect debts from many consumers. These repeat players file suits as part of their normal course of business, using the law to enforce contractual obligations. These cases make up a large part of civil litigation, though many cases are settled before trial. — G. Alan Tarr, Judicial Process and Judicial…, 1113
