English term or phrase: Generality (legal context)
Este término me tiene dando vueltas y aparece varias veces en un contrato:


Notwithstanding the GENERALITY of the above clause......

Without prejudice to the foregoing GENERALITY...
Viviana
Spanish translation:carácter general
Explanation:
Creo que se trata del término que consigné ya que pareciera que quiere aclarar que no es una cláusula aplicable sólo a una parte del contrato o a algo que no hace referencia a algo específico.
El contexto no es mucho...
Otra opción es que se refiera a "las generalidades de la ley", pero esta es una figura bien específica y no me arriesgaría a ponerlo sin conocer bien el contexto.
