French term or phrase: procès verbal de constat
Salut!

This term appears on a divorce certificate from Dakar.

Some possible translations are: 'affidavit' and 'sworn statement'. I would appreciate some advice about the best term to use in the context.

During a divorce, an affidavit is often required. An affidavit is simply a sworn statement. The individual involved in the incident at hand or a third party that was witness to an incident can write an affidavit. Affidavits may be considered heresay by the court, so you may be required to testify to the contents of the affidavit. Divorce affidavits also include financial affidavits and affidavits of non-military service
