Catalan term or phrase: poder per a plets
This is the title of an Andorran legal document. It is obviously a power of attorney, but I don't know if "per a plets" is a certain kind of power of attorney, or whether it is just a general term for it. Here are a few of the powers it grants, to give some context (there are 2 pages of these powers):

Adreçar, rebre i contester requeriments i notificacions; celebrar actes de conciliació; comparèixer davant de qualsevol Batlle o Tribunal de Batlles, … Junta, Comissió, Assemblea de socis, …. als efectes d’instar, seguir i finalitzar, com a part actora, demandada o en qualsevol altre concepte, tota mena d’expedients, judicis i procediments, … i, en conseqüencia, exercir, entaular, contestar i seguir … tota mena d’accions, demandes, denúncies, querelles, …. signar i presentar escrits … prestar caucions, fer dipòsits i consignacions judicials … Assistir amb veu i vot a les Juntes que es celebrin en mèrits d’expedients de fallides … nomenar i acceptar càrrecs d’administradors, interventors o controladors …

(AmE/CanE) Litigation Retainer Agreement


Explanation:
Although I have tailored this translation to the asker in the US, it would - I guess - be understandable on the Brit. Isles and elsewhere in the EN-speaking world.


Example sentence(s):
  • US: THIS LITIGATION RETAINER AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into on the ... Client hires Attorneys to provide legal services to Client
