A quick definition of vexatious lawsuit:

A vexatious lawsuit is a legal case that is started without a good reason and with the intention of causing trouble for the other party. It is also known as a vexatious suit or vexatious litigation. This type of lawsuit is considered malicious and can be compared to a false accusation. It is different from a legitimate lawsuit that is filed to seek justice or compensation for damages.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A vexatious lawsuit is a legal action that is brought without any good reason or with malicious intent. It is also known as a vexatious suit or vexatious litigation. This type of lawsuit is intended to harass, annoy, or cause unnecessary expense to the defendant.

Examples:

  • A person files a lawsuit against their neighbor for playing music too loudly, even though the neighbor has not violated any noise ordinances.
  • An individual sues their former employer for wrongful termination, even though there is no evidence to support their claim.

These examples illustrate how a vexatious lawsuit can be brought without any legitimate reason or evidence. The purpose of such a lawsuit is to cause inconvenience and expense to the defendant, rather than to seek justice or compensation for a legitimate grievance.

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
