It is a decition or case being raised or pleaded - bog-standard in most civilised legal systems of civil or EN Common Law countries,

In E&W, it is deemed near-contempt of court not to draw the judge's attention to similar cases or one 'on all fours' and the latter may make and has made 'a wasted costs order' against Counsel who have failed to do so

Then go for another answer.

Your employment context doesn't strike me as being administrative in nature, unless you are withholding the important point that the employers were or are a government body, the police or a local authority e.g. the Town Hall/la mairie.

I think that is what the author wants to say.
"cited" is definitely wrong here, as the Asker's reference would be nonsense if suscité were to mean "cited".
"raised" and "pleaded" are unidiomatic here.
"also litigated" is not a possibility because one of the cases was from a court of appeal.
This leaves "appealed". Here "appealed" may mean from a court to a higher court, or may mean from an administrative agency or other non-judicial decider to a court according to an accepted procedure.
Why the author did not use "interjetée appel" instead of "suscitée" is a matter of the author's style.

"also lodged", "also filed", "also instigated", and "also brought about" are similarly inapt, for the reasons stated above under "also litigated".

Of course, there is always the possibility that the court of appeal had initial jurisdiction in the case (jurisdiction of the first instance), and thus "also litigated" is a good answer. However, I think the chance of this is somewhat less than 5%.

The victim must file a complaint or a lawsuit to set off the legal process leading to a court ruling

To file a case is indeed a US legal concept
