transitado em julgado ou em tramitação

English translation: judgment has been rendered final or pending (still in litigation)

Law/Patents - Insurance
Portuguese term or phrase: transitado em julgado ou em tramitação
Part of an insurance policy. The entire sentence reads:

A expressão Crise não incluira nenhum ato relativo a cualquer litígio ***transitado em julgado ou em tramitação*** desde a Data de Continuidade, ou que alegue ou derive essencialmente dos mesmos fatos alegados no processo em trâmite ou transitado em julgado.

I understand the idea that transitar em julgado means something to the effect of a litigations having been tried and issued a final ruling, but there has to be an easier way to write that in the sentence. I am not all that certain as to what "transitado em tramitação" means, though. Any suggestions will be very welcome.

Thanks!

Explanation:
Mariela,

Two different concepts there, even though "or" is used there, which makes it a bit confusing.

You got the first part right!

tramitação = just means that it's still going thru the motions, the proceedings, awaiting trial or whatever the case may be

Bom trabalho :)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Good. You confirmed my hunch. This is what I had put: The expression "Crisis" shall not include any act related to any litigation that has been issued a final and binding ruling or that is under consideration since the Continuance Date, or that alleges or derives essentially from the same events alleged in the process that was finally resolved or that is under consideration

neutral  Gilmar Fernandes: Yes, that's the correct Latin term, but even the Catholic Church allowed Mass to be preached in each country's languages back in the '60s. I think lawyers in the U.S. only use Latin terms in scholarly texts or court decisions, with English explanations.
