دفوع

English translation: Arguments

09:12 Jun 23, 2003
Arabic to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents / litigation
Arabic term or phrase: دفوع
حيث أن مدونات الحكم المستأنف أحاطت تفصيلاً بالوقائع، وما قدم من مسـتندات وأثير من دفوع ودفاع، فإننا نحيل المحكمة إليها

Notice also that there is also a verbal form of the term:

ودفع المدعى عليه بعدم قبول الدعوى
Fuad Yahya
English translation:Arguments
Explanation:
دفوع مفردها دٌُُفع، وهو في المرافعات التجارية والمدنية أن يدعي المدعى عليه أمرا يريد به درء الحكم عليه في الدعوى

I would use contentions as well: "Since the appeal documents has containted details of the incidents, in addition to the documents attahced, and arguments in defense, we draw the atttention of the Court to these evidence"

The accused appeal was rejected

This seems to be the most probable term. In this piece, I used "arguments and counterarguments" for دفوع ودفاع. When used as a verb, it appears to be close to the verb "to move," as in "We move to dismiss the case for lack of evidence."
