Asimismo se presentó la excepción de ***oscuridad en la demanda****, ya que como veremos más adelante, el fundamento legal que señala la actora en sus causales de infracción es incorrecto, ya que mi representada no se ubica, ni se ubicó en ninguna de las hipótesis que prevé el artículo 213 de la Ley de la Propiedad Industrial.

inappropriate complaint - legal defect
La excepción de oscuridad en la demanda es similar a la excepción de defecto legal en la Argentina, es decir, la demanda (complaint) no cumple con los requisitos legales para ser aceptada como tal en un caso ante Justicia y comprendida su causa.
Tengo entendendido que no hay un equivalente en el derecho anglosajón, por lo que doy dos posibilidades.
Saludos.

motion for a more definite statement
In this context I believe "la excepción de oscuridad en la demanda" corresponds to "motion for a more definite statement." ("Asimismo se presentó la excepción de oscuridad en la demanda" = A motion for a more definite statement was likewise filed.) This is a procedural motion ("excepción) provided for in the US Federal Rules of Civil Procedure when a party's pleadings are deemed by the opponent to be vague or ambiguous (= "oscuridad en la demanda"). Here is the definition from Blacks Law Dictionary (8th ed.):
"A party's request that the court require an opponent to amend a vague or ambiguous pleading to whch the party cannot be required to respond."
"A party's request that the court require an opponent to amend a vague or ambiguous pleading to whch the party cannot be required to respond."
