Abstract
Litigation and its forms (which is "the right to sue" and the "the right to appeal against decisions) is one of the most important rights granted to individuals; these rights may be abused. For this reason, the issue of "abuse of the right to sue" and "abuse of the right to appeal against decisions" is raised. This study seeks to analyze the approach of the Iranian and French legal systems regarding the abuse of the above rights. The results of this study indicate that: The law of Iran on the prohibition of "abuse of the right to sue", provides a guarantee of enforcement, but does not say anything about "abuse of the right to appeal against decisions." French law prohibits the abuse of both rights and guarantees effective enforcement.
