Just implement loser-pays. The suits will stop instantly.
we already have that in most all cases.
How about we end “defendant pays at the start of a suit”. Many of these types of cases the law requires the plaintiff finance the plaintiff lawyers DURING the suit.
also we have loser pays for appeal cases.
The only thing that worries me about 'loser-pays' is that it could make it difficult for any plaintiff without deep pockets to take on an opponent that is heavily capitalized without risking losing it all - especially if the bigger, better-funded defendant (usually with a bevy of pretty clever lawyers on call) manages to get an otherwise valid lawsuit dismissed on some thin technicality.
If 'loser pays' would have to be decided as a separate legal action, I'll be ALL in favor of it. I would hate for the loser to be subjected to the winner's legal fees without some recourse or adjudication.
I'm just sayin'''
