When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Richard, es una frase hecha en documentos jurídicos. :-)
Non-ProZ.com (asker) Nov 17, 2008:
citacion contraria No, it is not from a casual conversation. It is from a reply to a complaint in a trademark dispute.
RichardDeegan Nov 17, 2008:
Why is this Non-Pro? Is it a greeting (Hola, Citación contraria) or from a casual conversation?

notification to the other party

Not too sure of the correct legalese (which probably depends on the target country anyway...), but it means, basically, that the documents that are being submitted must be brought formally to the attention of the other party in the dispute.

Reference:

something similar here (Federal Rules of Evidence)

"(c) Procedure to determine admissibility.

(1) A party intending to offer evidence under subdivision (b) must --

(A) file a written motion at least 14 days before trial specifically describing the evidence and stating the purpose for which it is offered unless the court, for good cause requires a different time for filing or permits filing during trial; and

(B) serve the motion on all parties and notify the alleged victim or, when appropriate, the alleged victim's guardian or representative.

(2) Before admitting evidence under this rule the court must conduct a hearing in camera and afford the victim and parties a right to attend and be heard. The motion, related papers, and the record of the hearing must be sealed and remain under seal unless the court orders otherwise."

In your case, the documents are offered as evidence with the request that the motion to admit them be served on the other party.

The frase "se acompañan con citación contraria" is in fact shorthand for "se acompañan y se solicita su agregación con citación de la contraparte" i.e., that they be admitted as evidence but giving the other party a chance to question their admissibility.
