FAQ

To bring a claim for declaratory judgment in a situation where a patent dispute may exist or develop, the claimant must establish that an actual controversy exists. If there is a substantial controversy of sufficient immediacy and reality, the court will generally proceed with the declaratory-judgment action.

A declaratory judgment is a ruling of the court to clarify something (usually a contract provision) that is in dispute. A summary judgment is a ruling that a case or portion of a case must be dismissed because there are no triable issues of material fact in dispute.

A difference of opinion must ripen into an actual concrete controversy to give rise to a justiciable case for which declaratory relief is appropriate. Furthermore, the controversy must be such as to be capable of resolution by a judgment that decrees, rather than suggests, what the parties can or cannot do.

For example, a policyholder believes that their denied claim is unjust. As a result, they inform the insurer that they are considering a lawsuit to recover losses. The insurer seeks a declaratory judgment to clarify its rights and obligations with hopes of preventing the lawsuit.

So a declaratory decree is one which resolves the legal uncertainty of the rights and status of the parties. However, passing of a declaratory decree is a matter of discretion of Court and it cannot be claimed as a right.

A declaratory judgment is a final judgment entered by the court that adjudicates you as the owner of the vehicle. You need to name the prior owners in the lawsuit. And, you need to have them served. Of course, that's hard to do if you don't know where they live. But, you could even have them served via publication.

A declaratory judgment is a binding judgment from a court defining the legal relationship between parties and their rights in a matter before the court. When there is uncertainty as to the legal obligations or rights between two parties, a declaratory judgment offers an immediate means to resolve this uncertainty.

In other words, the declaratory judgment results in a ruling on the legal issues, while injunctive relief is the action taken based on that ruling. A plaintiff will seek permanent injunctive relief.
