'DEMANDAR' (collocation):
  • Most typical: to sue somebody for something--- I sued him for breach of contract ('le demandé por violar el contrato').
  • To lodge/file a complaint/lawsuit against somebody --- He lodged a complaint against his neighbours (demandar o presentar una queja contra alguien)
  • To bring to lawsuit/court --- llevar a juicio 
  • To report to the police-- She has reported her daughter missing (ha denunciado la desaparición de su hija). Have you reported the accident/robbery/theft to the police yet? (¿has puesto ya una denuncia por robo en la policia?).
