Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky
Is judication a word? I'm writing a report and want to say that the family was in and out of court for different motions, procedures, etc for 2 1/2 years. Here is my sentence. The family spent 21/2 years of judication before they were awarded permanent custody of the child.

The word you're looking for is "adjudication."

Actually, "litigation" fits best in your sentence, but adjudication is the word.
