Contact preclusion, often referred to more broadly as "claim preclusion" or "res judicata," is a legal doctrine that prevents a party from relitigating a claim or issue that has already been judged on the merits in a final decision by a competent court. Once a final judgment has been rendered, the same parties cannot bring the same claims or issues before the court again.
