The ellipsis in the sentence is used to indicate an omission, as it suggests that there is more text not included between "years" and "for the case to be tried in court." This indicates that the reader is missing additional information relevant to the context of the time taken for legal proceedings, rather than a pause in the flow of the sentence.

The ellipsis in the sentence shows that something has been left out, so it means there's more information that is missing between "years" and "for the case to be tried in court." It doesn't indicate a pause; instead, it tells us that we need more details to understand the full story about how long the court case took.
