Discussion

Germaine May 25, 2020:
A prayer for relief, in the law of civil procedure, is a portion of a complaint in which the plaintiff describes the remedies that the plaintiff seeks from the court. For example, the plaintiff may ask for an award of compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorney's fees, an injunction to make the defendant stop a certain activity, or all of these. The request for a specific amount of money may be referred to as an ad damnum clause.

Demande de réparation

Peer comment(s):

disagree Daryo : only partially correct/too narrow - that wouldn't cover the part "an injunction to make the defendant stop a certain activity".

agree Germaine : Contrairement à ce que peut croire Daryo + https://www.canlii.org/en/ca/fct/doc/2001/2001fct758/2001fct... // Je ne crois pas.

Merci Germaine ! Je pense que Daryo prend du plaisir à voter négativement peu importe la réponse ;)

demande / requête de prononcé des mesures (conservatoires ou au fond)

Prayer is another word for application and 'mesures (conservatoires)' routinely translates into relief in the singular.

Demande might be on notice - inter partes vs. requête is an urgent application, usually without notice to the other side - ex parte
Example sentence:

Au moment où le demandeur dépose sa requête de mesures provisionnelles il ne doit pas présenter des preuves strictes concernant la violation de ses droits.

L’autorité de chose jugée conférée à un prononcé de mesures provisionnelles serait en effet relative, si bien que l’on ne saurait lui donner la portée que lui accorde la Cour cantonale.

Peer comment(s):

agree Daryo

Thanks and merci. I was unsure 'mesures' could stand on its or their own own,
disagree Germaine : Je ne vois ni mesure "conservatoire" ni "relief on the merits". On parle de réparation. Tout simplement. Et oui, "mesures" doit être qualifié. // Talking about your references?

- not a very cogent or coherent point...
