Italiano term

passaggio in giudicato

Da Italiano a Inglese Legale/Brevetti Finanza (generale) Bankruptcy
Same as previous question. This is the next phrase
http://www.proz.com/kudoz/italian_to_english/finance_general...
è atteso il passaggio in giudicato della sentenza

Discussion

P.S. oOOPS I was forgetting the most important part: in Italian this is called CERTIFICATO (or better yet ATTESTAZIONE) DI PASSAGGIO IN GIUDICATO
no appeal Hello!

I recently translated a USA certificate of no appeal, that confirmed that:

The county clerk had filed a JUDGEMENT OF DIVORCE: the terms for appeal to a higher court to nullify the JUDGMENT had expired and therefore the parties were free to remarry (State of New York, 2012). The decree was therefore FINAL and the whole certification was called CERTIFICATE OF NO APPEAL (because the terms for appeal had expired in the meantime), making the whole thing FINAL

So perhaps the word JUDGEMENT should appear - FINAL JUDGEMENT ?

neutral Thomas Roberts : passaggio in giudicato is not necessarily simultaneous with the issue of a judgment

decision has become final

This is what we'd commonly say in the USA. They're waiting for the court's decision to become final, which will happen if no one appeals it. This is not the same thing as a final judgment, BTW.

That was how I translated it myself, but without technical knowledge
Thanks Sylvia, I chose the UK version.

RES JUDICATA / SECTION ESTOPPED

this is how the the Oxford Dictionary of Law, Oxford Press, put it, but in a slightly different meaning.

The verdict becomes RES JUDICATA

"a matter adjudicated upon by a Court of comprehensive jurisdiction cannot be reopened or challenged by the original parties or their successors in interest."

also: ESTOPPEL BY RECORD or BY REM JUDICATA prevents a person from re-opening questions that are res judicata.

This does not preclude any appeal, though, if the terms are not expired.

Different from "no appeal", where the terms for appeal are over.
