French term

Numéro de rôle

French to English Law/Patents Law (general)
The text is about a number of Conseil d'Etat decisions, and at the end it gives references to the decisions including a "numéro de rôle" (as well as subsections etc).

I have found "cause list" as a translation for "rôle" but am not sure if it is appropriate in this instance.

tjm (asker) Sep 7, 2005:
Sorry, I wasn't quite sure what to do since I hadn't used any of the actual answers. To be honest, the most helpful comment was your last note!
Jean-Gabriel Piette Sep 6, 2005:
If you made a decision, the least you could do is to award points to the answer you found most helpful. It is not a good idea (!) to leave the question open...
Jean-Gabriel Piette Sep 6, 2005:
That is not false, as it is indeed a list, Num�ro de r�le is the number of a cause in that list. It won't be "list number" at any rate...
tjm (asker) Sep 6, 2005:
The institution I work for has its own legal glossary, which gives "role d'audience" as "list (of cases for hearing)".

writeaway Sep 6, 2005:
list number is meaningless.
writeaway Sep 1, 2005:
is already in glossary (click on ProZ.com Term Search) http://www.proz.com/kudoz/360503 http://www.proz.com/kudoz/747666

docket number

A docket or calendar of causes ready for trial or argument ... "Trial docket" appears to be used in the United States whereas "court list" is the Canadian term. "Roll for hearing" is used in Quebec.
"Calendar" is used in G.B. for "docket" or "cause-list" in criminal cases only; in the U.S., it is used for both civil and criminal cases.

agree writeaway : this answer is perfectly correct and declining it could be misleading for others later on. it should be noted that this was the very personal decision of asker and does not detract from the accuracy of the answer.the option to decline should be eliminated

3 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "In fact I opted for "list number", but it appears this was the wronog choice... The reason I didn't originally choose this answer was that it was unclear to me what the British term would be in a non-criminal case. "
