EN: trial; hearing (legal)
The ultimate "resibo reveal" in a courtroom. It's the legal drama you see on TV, but in real life, with real consequences. It's when lawyers say "Objection!" and the judge bangs a gavel. Also, the trial you put your friend through when they tell you a story and you need to cross-examine them for inconsistencies.
From Spanish 'litis' (lawsuit, litigation).
