TOPIC 2. PERSONAL JUDGMENTS

TITLE A. IN GENERAL

§ 17. EFFECTS OF FORMER ADJUDICATION—GENERAL RULES

A valid and final personal judgment is conclusive between the parties, except on appeal or other direct review, to the following extent:

If the judgment is in favor of the plaintiff, the claim is extinguished and merged in the judgment and a new claim may arise on the judgment (see § 18);

If the judgment is in favor of the defendant, the claim is extinguished and the judgment bars a subsequent action on that claim (see § 19);

A judgment in favor of either the plaintiff or the defendant is conclusive, in a subsequent action between them on the same or a different claim, with respect to any issue actually litigated and determined if its determination was essential to that judgment (see § 27).
