Could you evade the question...say "That's an interesting question...oh my look at the time" and run off?
I would tend to give an It's none of your business, or say That's a personal questions and I'm not comfortable answering that.
But if it's a teacher or authority figure asking...I would just avoid answering at all.

I'm wondering if you feel like the question is intrusive because you are embarassed about suing someone? I know there are valid reasons to sue, but mostly I think people do it because they think the world owes them something. If it was a valid case, I would be proud to saying I was fixing something that was wrong in the world and not feel like I was being intruded upon!

if you have a moral dilemma about white lies then simply dance around the issue by aswering indirectly with something like " oh, im just sick of the whole thing" or answer a question with a question with something like " Have you ever sued?" or " sued is kind of a funny word, isnt it?" just keep dancing around it and usually your subject will either get tired of asking or finally figure out that you dont really want to say.

Honestly, I'd have to wonder why you're discussing your law suit with someone who's just an aquaintance. If you don't want to get into the details, don't start the conversation in the first place.
If, in fact, someone asks you an odd question like, "I love your hair color, where did you get it?", feel free to say "I don't discuss that topic in public" or "Pardon me, I need to take this call"...
And yes, feel free to just say "No" or even "How rude" and walk away. Sometimes, people don't get that they're stepping over their bounds.

i know where you are coming from just tell them the little white lie or if you feel that it is wrong to lie then tell them you cant discuss it or say that you dont mean to be rude but you would feel more comfortable not talking about it

you're no longer information the Bible. In Gen. it tells us that Jesus have been given to be the Christ because of the fact he grow to be the only angel that had never sinned! I surely have long undergone my New testomony and counted over 550 places that state that Jesus isn't God! Like the place Jesus pronounced: Why do you call me "stable"? i'm no longer stable. purely God is stable.". "how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and capacity, and how he went around doing stable and healing all who have been below the capacity of the devil, because of the fact God grow to be WITH him." "...you have never heard his voice nor seen his type,...". "For the very artwork that the father has given me to end, and which i'm doing, testifies that the father has despatched me." it is maximum suitable to obey the Bible, no longer lazy human beings very own needs and desires.

No one can "force" you to lie.
You have the right to say "I don't feel comfortable answering that question".
Why are you getting into these discussions anyway? If you don't want to field questions, don't get into these discussions to begin with.

you must point out and be assertive but polite that it is a private matter which you do not wish to discuss.
