GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Dutch term or phrase:
de bewezenverklaring van het onder 1 primair, 2 primair en 3 ten laste geledge
English translation:
That the court finds (...) on the principal charge 1
Explanation: Usually (in the UK) the phrase "the Court finds" is used, so -
Presumably the prosecutor is demanding that:
"...The court finds..", the next bit depends on the context, but something like
"..against the defendant(s)/respondent(s)" (or finds them guilty), on the principal charge (usually "of manslaughter, etc") 1, the principal charge 2 and charge 3.."

\"Indictment\" is used instead of \"charge\" in the US I believe.
This is an excellent answer, thank you! We're talking UK English (I thought this was a 'dialect' option on the question, but I still seem to be getting US answers. Oh well.)
Ok, this is what I have so far:
- the judicial finding of fact of the charges under 1 principal, 2 principal and 3;
So, I'm struggling with both the correct terminology for 'bewezenverklaring' in this context PLUS '1 primair, 2 primair'. As they are all in the same sentence, I honestly thought it would be easier to post as one query, rather than 2.
Lucy, come on - you know the rules, what portion are you actually struggling with

bovenaan moet natuurlijk ook staan: count 1 of the indictment (het is inderdaad niet zo gemakkelijk om 2 termen in 1 antwoord te gieten...)
