Italiano term

spedizione a sentenza

Da Italiano a Inglese Legale/Brevetti Legale (generale)
il giudice ha confermato per la spedizione a sentenza l’udienza del 10 settembre 2010.
"spedizione a sentenza" seems to be a stock legal term in Italian but I can't pin down the meaning in English.
Does it just mean "issuing a judgment/decision"?

issuing a judgment

The Judge confirmed the date of 10th September for issuing his judgment.
The terms "decision" and "judgment" are often interchangable. The term "judgment", under rules practice includes "decree". The term "judgment" is also used to denote the reasons which the court gives for its decision; but this is more properly denominated an "opinion".

"Ajournement" is the equivalent of a writ of Summons in England. In French law it is the document pursuant to which an action or a suit is commenced. Actions, however are in some cases commenced by 'requete' or petition. Italian translation: primo documento con cui si inizia una causa.

My apologies to Fabrizio. A "D" and an "E"can make a difference between "ajournment" and "aDjournEment"

adjournment of the judgment

this is the meaning, basically, the decision will (or should) be made on that date.

In Italy the conditional is mandatory in these cases:)))

but I'm not a expert so better wait for further confirmation...

delivery of the judgment

"il momento decisionale in senso proprio - la cosiddetta spedizione a sentenza" ("the decision-making stage properly speaking - or 'spedizione a sentenza'"), as stated in the Florence court's judgment, makes it relatively clear that it is a set expression for the judgment (as opposed to the earlier stages such as the application, defence, reply, rejoinder and so on. The image is of the case being ready for judgment ("matura per la decisione").

In a sentence such as that of the questioner, a translation may simply be along the lines already suggested: the Court set [date x] for judgment.
Example sentence:

il momento decisionale in senso proprio - la cosiddetta spedizione a sentenza
