figures Explanation: Could it be "figures?" I think the more common abbreviation is figg. Unfortunately by this logic it could also be "fogli" but that is usually just ff. Whatever it is, it is definitely plural. Can you tell if 1-4 are actually figures? |

sections Explanation: I think it literally stands for figures, though it may possibly be being used in a wide/sloppy? sense to mean sections of the submission. It could also refer to the claims (conclusioni). I would just look at the substance of what comes before this reference and think about what other part of the text is relevant. I doubt its a reference to pages because page 1 of any submission never contains anything substantive (has description of the parties, representatives, etc.), so it's unlikely that it would be referred to. There is a previous answer (http://ita.proz.com/kudoz/italian_to_english/energy_power_ge... but I don't think that is any help at all as it deals with land registry documents. |

(following) pages / giorni Explanation: f in this context owing to "folio" , thus "following pages" or simply "pages" as the repetition of the consonant is often used for indicating the plural, like gg = giorni |

a plural form Explanation: Don't know if this can help but when letters are doubled like this in legal terms it usually means a plural form. This means that the gg could be giudiziali. I'll let you know if/when I get any further -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2011-09-30 09:11:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- putting all these suggestions together it could be fogli giudiziali |
