neutral  AllegroTrans: OK for 2nd Division by why Americanize the rest of it? West is very US-centric in my experience//not just the plural but your complete disregard of "cassation" which has no equivalent in USA or UK
23 hrs
  -> Court of Appeal*s*// I def. have included 'cassation' in past answers, but had a mental block with the Criminal Cassation part of the first answer https://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish-to-english/law-general/67...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_cassation
A court of cassation is a high-instance court that exists in some judicial systems. Courts of cassation do not re-examine the facts of a case, they only interpret the relevant law. In this they are appellate courts of the highest instance. In this way they differ from systems which have a supreme court which can rule on both the facts of a case and the relevant law. The term derives from the Latin cassare, "to reverse/overturn".
