Examples

.

The lawyer won the case.

Learning a language is a slow process.

Two senses share the page and context always separates them: a in a courtroom is the trial, and a anywhere else is a sequence of steps unfolding over time. If you need to be unmistakable about the legal one, juĝa settles it. The verb procedi is the going-forward itself, not the court case.
