Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s)
Portuguese term or phrase: não pudesse conhecer ou prever a data da celebração
Contexto: Cláusula de Força Maior
"Não podem ser impostas penalidades ao prestador de bens e serviços, nem é havido como incumprimento, a não realização pontual das prestações contratuais a cargo de qualquer das partes que resulte de caso de força maior, entendendo-se como tal as circunstâncias que impossibilitem a respetiva realização, alheias a vontade da parte afetada, que ela não pudesse conhecer ou prever a data da celebração do contrato e cujos efeitos não lhe fosse razoavelmente exigível contornar ou evitar."

Sou eu ou está faltando preposição na parte desta frase?
"que ela não pudesse conhecer ou prever a data da celebração do contrato e cujos efeitos não lhe fosse razoavelmente exigível contornar ou evitar"

Bom, como o autor usou "à" em vex de "na", é palusível traduzir por "by" em vez de "on". Você tem razão.

could not have known of or foreseen on the date of making


Explanation:
In Anglo-Am law, actual notice (knowlrdge) contrasts with constructive (deemed) notice. But the 'prever' seems to have a different futuristic spin.

So not really: could not have notice of, actual or constructive, on the date of making the contract,



Example sentence(s):
  • (US and not UK) Note that constructive notice trumps actual notice. ... served (receives constructive notice), but because of a fluke does not in reality receive the papers www.law.cornell.edu/wex/actual_notice
