Law (general)
presumption of innocence
Thi is found in a legal opinion regarding proposed changes to the articles of incorporation of a company. The clause in question aims at excluding persons accused (but not convicted) of some specific offences from the board of directots:
"in particolare, la disciplina in esame si pone in contrasto con il principio di presunzione di innocenza (*rectius* di non colpevolezza) sancito dall’art. 27, comma 2, della Costituzione, – se non anche laddove conferisce rilevanza ad una sentenza “non definitiva” – certamente con riferimento al meccanismo che prevede come causa di ineleggibilità e di decadenza l’emissione del decreto che dispone il giudizio (ordinario o immediato), in assenza, quindi, di un accertamento di responsabilità (commi 2 e 3 della Clausola)."
All suggestions are welcome.

: This is not grammatical, so it doesn't justify a 5.

Don't 1-5 numbers represent the level of confidence? Am I wrong? If not, can anyone explain the meaning of those numbers? The translation I have proposed has nothing to do with gramma and I didn't mean to place my attention on it.

Kate Chaffer
: The numbers do represent the level of confidence. A level 5 means that there is no other possible answer. What Phil means is that your answer isn't grammatically correct (more correctLY, not more correct) so your confidence level is too high.

or rather
Latin comparative adverb, if you're interested in the etymology of the term, from "rectus", meaning "right, correct or proper". So, literally "more correctly", as already posted. But I'd personally go for "rather", which strikes me as more natural-sounding
