@Lori OK, but when you say 'the original document was in English - translated into Spanish', do you mean the original (English - errr... UK/US/other?) document was translated into Bolivian Spanish? Or is Bolivia only relevant here because that where the PoA was signed/to be used/other?
Please be aware that legal terminology this side of the 'the Pond' is significantly different to that in Europe, and differs widely from one southern cone country to another; that observation is all the more true when comparing Bolivian terminology with Castilian.

Lori, That's interesting because conversion could easily be translated into traduccion in Spanish. Conversion in law is a type of misappropriation. An action for conversion is a standard legal term. The answer could well be (action for) conversion brought by....

Original was in English Bizarrely, the original document was in English - translated into Spanish and I am proofing back into English. As I understand it - it was requested that the original be translated into Spanish.
Thanks

I am certain enough to know when a question is not properly answered. As to posting my own answer, the problem is that I can't find any authority as to 'traduccion' being (legal) 'conversion' here but I seem to remember it from many years back. The Internet is so full of translation-related hits that I really haven't the time to go into it further and my own resources don't give me any confirmation. If I'm not pretty sure of an answer I don't post it.
mediamatrix (X) Apr 13, 2011:
@FVS But you are "certain enough" to sweepingly disagree with an answer from a peer who happens to have significant experience of southern cone legal speak. Hmmm...

The point being addressed in this question is Asker's question: "traduccion seguido por". Please give us your answer - and be shot down like a man!
FVS (X) Apr 13, 2011:
If I had the answer to the whole question I would have posted it. As a matter of fact I think 'traduccion' here actually translates as 'conversion' (in the legal sense) but I'm not certain enough to post it as an answer. If you look up the legal meaning of conversion you will see what I mean. But I really am not sure. As to the crux of the question, Asker ends by saying "Could it be filed by?" which is point being addressed in this discussion.
mediamatrix (X) Apr 13, 2011:
'brought by' ... ... may well be a valid translation of 'seguido por' (although several good alternatives come readily to mind); but what about 'traducción'? That, surely, is the crux of Asker's question here...
FVS (X) Apr 13, 2011:
'brought by' is the term here. .
Christine Walsh Apr 13, 2011:
'Filed by' seems quite a likely option. Perhaps you could use a more general term like 'put forward', 'advanced' or 'presented'.

Spanish term (edited): traduccion

transfer (of rights)

Owing to the more-common use of 'traducción' to refer to the work of language translators, it's quite difficult to find valid webrefs for this 'other' (and perhaps older) meaning of 'traducción', although it's quite often seen in southern cone legal texts: transfer

(Note: in this second webref, only the first of the four ocurrences of 'traducción' refers to 'transfer', the other three are about language translation.

'traducción' is also (and perhaps more-commonly) known as 'tradición de derechos':

To clarify for the benefit of FVS (see comment below), and on the understanding that Asker most probably knows full well what 'seguido por' means (and how that expression can be translated):

transfer persued by / brought by

where 'persued by' gets my preference by a long chalk.
Peer comment(s):
disagree FVS (X) : seguido por??? Transfer?? I'm sorry this is not a meaningful answer.// Sorry, don't see anything about seguido por in the answer, which is what the asker actually wanted to know if you read the question.

Please do everyone the courtesy of reading the question (and, if the fancy takes you, also the answer) before making rash comments. traducción --> transfer, OK?
