The law of the case doctrine is a rule of practice that once an issue is judicially determined, further litigation of that tissue should be precluded in a particular case. The doctrine prevents the parties, or those in privity with them, from relitigating an issue decided in an ongoing action where there previously was a full and fair opportunity to address the issue.
