A declaratory judgment is “a binding adjudication that establishes the rights and other legal relations of the parties without providing for or ordering enforcement.” (Black Law Dictionary, 11th ed.)
37.006. PARTIES. (a) When declaratory relief is sought, all persons who have or claim any interest that would be affected by the declaration must be made parties. A declaration does not prejudice the rights of a person not a party to the proceeding.
A declaratory judgment establishes the rights and other legal actions of the parties without providing for or ordering enforcement. One example is, if you purchased a vehicle or boat and cannot obtain a certificate of title from the previous owner, you can obtain a judgment declaring your ownership.
The court would then interpret the contract and define the rights of both parties, offering a legal resolution without the need for a traditional lawsuit. Declaratory judgments are powerful because they provide clarity without requiring one party to be in breach of a contract or to have committed a legal violation.
