Italian term

su istanza della parte più diligente

Italian to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) articles of incorporation
No idea, apparently a common phrase.

"Esso a tal fine è determinato tenendo conto del suo valore di mercato al momento della dichiarazione di recesso, tenuto conto della consistenza patrimoniale della società e delle sue prospettive reddituali; in caso di disaccordo, la determinazione è compiuta tramite relazione giurata di un esperto nominato dal tribunale, che provvede anche sulle spese, su istanza della parte più diligente; si applica in tal caso il primo comma dell'art..."

Perhaps the party putting forward the request.

Thanks,

Peter

fair enough
Thomas Roberts Sep 17, 2012:
in that context it would make a difference but that doesn't look like art 168....
CristianaC Sep 17, 2012:
@Thomas this is what made me think art .168 codice procedura penale: La designazione del giudice istruttore deve, in ogni caso, avvenire non oltre il secondo giorno successivo alla costituzione della parte più diligente.
would you use "one of the party here"?
not that I am sure and I am in a hurry but...
Thomas Roberts Sep 17, 2012:
"diligent party" as legal English 8 hits in the UK, rather appropriately from a standard form contract for translation service providers!

upon application by one of the parties

Literally means the first party to act, but in legal English would simply say either party.

Logically speaking, it can't be the second party to act becuase in order for the second party to act the first party must already have acted.

upon the request of the first party to act

I think you're correct. The "parte piu' diligente" is the party making the request, i.e. whichever party acts first.

neutral philgoddard : Of course it's the first party to act - it wouldn't be the second party.

upon request/application by the more diligent party

This is how I normally phrase this - usually in an arbitration clause - clausola compromissoria, though it may appear in a different context.

Thomas - you will find this term is other Kudoz replies from EN> EN 2006 I think and from EN to Polish 2004

at the request of the earliest petitioner

this is just an additional suggestion used in UE

http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Notice.do?mode=dbl&lang=en&ihmlang=...

what I think is interesting is to see whether you can really do without the "parte più diligente"

In fact I wonder why did the Italian legislation use this term.
In general any action that can subsequently be carried out by the "parte più diligente" would make a difference

e.g. if the parte più diligente can also for example set the expenses or if a certain deadline starts as from the time the parte più diligente made the petition etc.. presumably the distinction matters...

Peer comment(s):

neutral Thomas Roberts : I have never seen this phrase used in a context in which it could not be excised - it is completely meaningless legalese-padding
