To sue for damages, seeking compensation for the slightest violation of rights. Often this involves the prosecution not having common sense. See nanny state, political correctness, idiot.
Suing a cigarette company because you got cancer, which may have been caused by the smokes. Because there was no clear warning, despite it being well known they are dangerous to health(documentation dates to world war I), the prosecution claims she was not aware and sues for billions of dollars.

Even though this is a legal term, In northern california circles this word can mean 2 things: relaxing, lounging around, chilling out, etc -or- (when used with the question "what") going on, happening, up.
This term is usually used as the a greeting in this form:
"Yo! Sup parry, what's litigaten'?"
-Hey! how are you my friend, what are you doing right now?
And the normal response for that question must use the same word! like so:
"oh, you know, just litigations"
-Well, typical, I'm just relaxing.
The next part of the question goes like this:
"Aight,well then what's litigaten for tonite?"
-I see, what are your plans for tonite?
"I'm bout to jus' litigate"
-No plans really, just more relaxing.

Legendary Internet warrior/warrior technique, who's origins date back to the turn of the second millennium. The Litigator technique combines traditional methods of offense and defense such as the use of italics, bold font, underlining and font size. A master of the technique will infuse use of misdirection, vague humor, diversion, "the flip", misaccusations, misquotations, confusion, and truths turned falsehoods. To engage in Internet battle with Marsad can be extreme or mild. Should a battle continue more than a week, Litigator will employ the final and most discplined method of outwording an opponent.
Warrior One: Golf is more difficult than fishing
Litgator Warrior: Golf is is similar to racing, with the golf player being the driver and the clubs being the engine. With that, it is nearly impossible to construe golf and fishing are anything alike, except that fishing and golf both take patience and skill, and both hobbies are expensive which make them similar. Professionales exist and compete in both sports, as well as amateurs, yet racing and fishing as you said, are very different with increasing similarities after close examination.
Warrior One: That's not what I said.
Litigator Warrior: That is exactly (bolded, intalicized & underlined) what you said.

A person (not a corporation as defined by the Supreme Court, but a real person) who threatens to bring suit against someone via a comment on facebook; usually, a facebook litigant talks about unleashing a lawyer on a person who responds negatively to his or her facebook comment, but in fact a facebook litigant has no lawyer and has only seen lawyers portrayed on television shows about lawyers written by script writers who are usually stoned when writing their scripts and have never studied law; a facebook litigant is rarely referred to as a tigersaur
John S. said Obama needed to be impeached and shot, and I commented that there was no real legal basis to proceed with impeachment and that he knew nothing about the law, so he went all facebook litigant on me and I responded with a facebook shark emoticon followed by the emoticon for shit.
