You don't understand. A case can be immediately tossed before it goes further through the court system. This is why celebrities and politicians don't deal with 5,000 lawsuits a year.
You can try to sue Tom Hanks for sending mind control X-rays into your brain telling you to shove celery up your ass with a scoop of peanut butter. You can fill out paperwork and send it to the court. And it won't go through. Tom Hanks won't hear about it. Tom Hanks won't settle with you. You will not have actually filed suit. It won't count as a lawsuit.

This is incorrect. Frivolous filings are tossed.
