A more throughout explanation: Preclusion refers to the legal concept that bars a party from raising a particular claim or issue in a lawsuit because it has already been decided in a prior case involving the same parties or their privies. This doctrine is intended to prevent parties from re-litigating the same issues multiple times and promotes finality and efficiency in the legal system.
Example: The preclusion of evidence at trial due to a failure to disclose it during the discovery phase can have a significant impact on the outcome of the case.
