A quick definition of autre action pendant:

Term: AUTRE ACTION PENDANT

Definition: Autre action pendant means that there is another legal case going on that is related to the current case. This phrase was used in the past to ask for a delay in the current case until the other case was resolved.

Basically, it means that there is another legal matter that needs to be taken care of before the current case can proceed.

A more thorough explanation:

AUTRE ACTION PENDANT

Autre action pendant is a legal term that means "another action pending" in Law French. It was previously used in pleas of abatement.

For example, if a defendant is being sued for the same issue in another court, they can use the plea of autre action pendant to ask the court to dismiss the current case until the other case is resolved.

Another example is if a plaintiff files two lawsuits against the same defendant for the same issue, the defendant can use the plea of autre action pendant to ask the court to dismiss one of the cases.

These examples illustrate how the plea of autre action pendant can be used to prevent multiple lawsuits from being filed for the same issue and to ensure that cases are not tried in multiple courts at the same time.
