the suit became moot


Explanation:
De acordo com o Marcilio Moreira de Castro:
• o pedido do autor perdeu o objeto; a ação perdeu o seu objeto; o pedido do autor ficou prejudicado; a ação ficou prejudicada > the suit became moot; the suit mooted; the suit is no longer necessary
Black's Law Dictionary:
Moot, adj. A subject for argument; unsettled; undecided.

[judicial] process complicated


Explanation:
Process complicated [by whatever]. 72,700,000 uses of the subject + verb on Google.

Lack of context: With no indication of time, the process may have been complicated in the past or may be complicated at present. At any rate, process +complicated is a frequent S-V combination.
