English translation:court fees, etc.
Explanation:
From a web search it looks as though (at least some of) these are not acronyms as such, but shortened single words. It seems they all go to make up "costs" which a party to a legal action is ordered to pay. Here's an example from the web:

Condamne Monsieur NGIAMA MAKANDA WERRA SON agissant és qualités de Président du groupe WENGE MUSICA MAISON MERE aux
dépens, dont ceux à recouvrer par le Greffe liquidés à la somme de 318,50 francs ttc (app 12,56 aff 31, 40 emol 224,40 tav 50, 14) soit 18,58
euros.

Unfortunately, I can't find any authoritative source to say exactly what they stand for or how to translate them. I guess emol = émolument, possibly émolument de justice = court fees.

As a wild guess, aff could be short for affichage au tribunal = posting on the court notice board, which I suppose could attract a charge.

However, I can't think what app might stand for or be short for.

Thank you for your help. I think you were right, especially as some of the refs you found were not in caps, so they could well be shortened words, "emol" in particular. In the end, the client said not to worry, as the amounts were pretty insignificant anyway!

This is what I could come up with in a few minutes of Internet research. The first two are equivalents from Figaro Economie. The third I found as an abbreviation with its extention in parentheses on an economics website on the internet.
