French term or phrase: la concluante
Dire et juger l'action en garantie diligenté par la société XXXXXXXXXXXXX à l'encontre de la concluante sans objet.

Other than evidence...don't see want it could mean. Perhaps "concluante" is one of the insurance companies with which the company took out an insurance policy? It's probably ridiculously simple...

Well, put it this way: the plaintiff files, the respondent (without necessarily being a defendant in a civil case) responds. I was basing this on the concluante\'s being the last in the turn of rebuttals, without taking an appeal into consideration (another ball game).

Yes, but ARE THEY APPEALING NOW? Note that an appeal may turn the respondent in a previous case into a plaintiff!

la concluante is the one who has handed in "conclusions" ie


Explanation:
submissions in evidence (or counter evidence), here hard to tell, I would be tempted to say the "defenderess" but no certainty, at a push that is what I would put in

the party's name ....


Explanation:
a good solution is just to use the name of the party making the statement or plea (you could say 'the pleader', but that sounds odd), or 'the plaintiff' or 'defendant' or 'claimant' etc., however that party is designated at the beginning.

perhaps appellant is a more neutral term if it is further than appeal proceedings.
