French term

rapport de synthèse

Non-PRO French to English Law/Patents Law (general) Police procedure
Essentially a report of a crime, including witness statements, summary of investigation: http://luc.p.free.fr/rapport_synthese.htm

Does anyone know what specific term if any would this correspond to in English? Is it simply a "case report" or is there something more specific?
Change log

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): Yolanda Broad

Non-PRO (3): writeaway, SJLD, Karen Stokes

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

prosecution file {with a summary of the evidence and case}

Nearest Eng. eqiv. methinks. Neither a synthesis nor a synopsis.

Also dovetails with the avis to the Parquet being a file, even in the form of a simple notice.

Example sentence:

Where a person is charged or reported for an offence a prosecution file of evidence must be prepared to enable the Crown Prosecution Service to present the case

neutral writeaway : so which answer are you proposing? synthetic report or one of the "or" options? /am not changing to an agree because you clearly favour synthetic report and summary report was just added as an optional extra, while it is actually the acceptable answer

Note from asker:
My hesitation with "summary report" is I'm not convinced it's actually used in the case of a crime report which is the context here. The *general* translation of "rapport de synthèse" as "summary report" isn't the issue here...
