You're right about this being a Belgian text, and I fully see Jarry's point about a 'judicial' Wetboek being tautology. However, as it's there, I've got to translate it!

Could it be "Wetboek van Burgelijke Rechtsvordering"?


Explanation:
i.e.Code of Civil Procedure.

Gerechtelijk Wetboek in my view is a tautology and a non-existing term. You don't give any context, but could it simply be the Civil Code?
