Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Litigation was first extensively practiced by environmental and civil rights groups in the 1950s and 1960s. These groups used litigation to challenge discriminatory policies or practices and to protect the environment. Professional and labor groups also used litigation during this time, but not to the same extent as environmental and civil rights groups. Business and professional groups were not as likely to use litigation as a tool during this period.
