Law: Patents, Trademarks, Copyright

English term or phrase: insofar as

I have found "insomuch as".
The whole sentence is: the opposition was examined insofar as it was based on the earlier marks.
I just need a translation of "insofar as" and a source please. Thanks

وهكذا ، فحيث ان مسؤولي المستوى التنفيذي قد رخصوا وطبقوا سياسة استجواب قسرية ، فان هذه السياسة يجب ان تقدم الى الكونغرس من اجل فحصها ومناقشتها .
ويجب ان يقرر الكونغرس حسب تقديره مدى انسجامها ، مع المبادئ الديمقراطية الاساسية المتعلقة بالمعاملة الانسانية ، ومدى انسجامها مع القانون الدولي والقانون المحلي .
Thus, insofar as Executive Branch officials have authored and implemented a coercive interrogation policy, that policy must be submitted to Congress for examination and debate. Congress should determine afresh its wisdom, its consistency with basic democratic principles of humane treatment, and its conformity with international and domestic law. If any such policy were to be adopted by Congress, the reviewability of such law through the operation of the courts in due course must be assured.

لأنها/بما أنها

Explanation:
inasmuch as, insofar as (subord. conjs.)

Both locutions are conventionally spelled as two words and have meanings and functions similar to since, because, and as; and to due to the fact that, given the fact that, and a few other clichés designed to vary these conjunctions. Inasmuch as and insofar as are occasionally criticized for being too wordy, but they are Standard and useful for variety.
