Law/Patents - Law (general)
Bulgarian term or phrase: инкриминирам
From a Decision by the Supreme Court of Cassation
In this context, it doesn't seem to mean "incriminate", as you can only incriminate a person. Initially I thought it was a typo for "инкриминиращ",but it comes up in too many contexts for this.

"Прокурорът не е съгласен с приетото от съда, че подс.Д. не е нарушил задълженията, произтичащи от инкриминираните с обвинителния акт разпоредби"

"Наредба № 16/01 г. не е инкриминирана от прокурора"

"инкриминираните престъпления"

incriminate // declare sth illegal / void
Explanation:
OED:

incriminate, v.

(ɪnˈkrɪmɪneɪt)

[f. ppl. stem of med.L. incrīmināre to accuse, f. in- (in-2) + crīmināre to criminate; perh. partly due to F. incriminer (1791 in Hatz.-Darm.).]

trans. To charge with a crime; to involve in an accusation or charge.

   1730–6 Bailey (folio), To Incriminate, to recriminate.    1828 Webster, Incriminate, to accuse; to charge with a crime or fault.    1862 Wraxall Hugo's ‘Misérables’ v. xi, Their theory is incriminated.    1874 Symonds Sk. Italy & Greece (1898) I. xi. 220 It would be wrong to incriminate the Order of S. Francis by any suspicion.    1885 Manch. Exam. 6 June 5/3 Evidence which will incriminate others while it clears themselves.

Hence inˈcriminated, inˈcriminating ppl. adjs.

   1858 Times 27 Nov. 8/2 Any incriminated phrase of Montalembert's pamphlet.    1863 Kinglake Crimea I. xiv. 231 This Maupas, or de Maupas‥deliberately offered to arrange that incriminating papers‥should be secretly placed in the houses of the men whom he wanted to have accused.    1875 Stubbs Const. Hist. III. xix. 343 If the ordinary claimed the incriminated clerk.    1882 Traill Sterne iv. 40 An excuse for the incriminated passage.

Comment: as seen above - 'incriminate' should actually suffice.

Not the way I would use it - it seems to be used more broadly in BG than in ENG. But thank you for the references.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Here are a few more instances: инкриминирания период инкриминираното престъпление (tautology?) инкриминираното деяние Инкриминираният от прокурора работен документ With a very generous interpretation of "to involve in an accusation or charge", it may just work.
