Spanish term

revisión de oficio

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) source text from Mexico
This term is found in the legal arguments presented before a court.

Here is the full sentence:

Dicho en otras palabras, la apelación en materia penal, somete al superior jerárquico a la valoración y análisis de los hechos apreciados en primera instancia, únicamente dentro de los límites marcados por la expresión de agravios (principio de agravio), en el caso del Ministerio Público recurrente; pues de lo contrario se convertiría en una revisión de oficio en cuanto a los puntos no recurridos por éste, lo que se traduce en una flagrante violación al contenido del artículo 16 constitucional.

Thank you.

sua sponte review

"Ex officio" generally means "by virtue of one's office." But in Spanish and in the context of review by a judge, the expression "revisión de oficio" does not imply that a judge is acting "by virtue of his office," but rather that he is reviewing some aspect of a case "on his own motion," rather than at the petition of one of the parties. In the US a judge acting on his own motion is said to be acting "sua sponte." In that regard, "sua sponte" means "of one's own accord, voluntarily, on its own motion: the court took notice sua sponte that it lacked jurisdiction over the case" (Black´s Law Dictionary, 8th ed.)

Your text refers to a judge's "sua sponte review" of aspects not included in the appeal ("revisión de oficio en cuanto a los puntos no recurridos"). Here are some examples of how "sua sponte" is used in this context:
