French term or phrase: conclure à la confirmation

This is an extract from a judgement handed down by a Belgian court. It is in the section which goes over the history of the case.

The whole section reads:

"XXX a interjeté appel à cette décision. Elle demande a la cour de :
- condamner YYY à verser a la Caisse des dépôts et consignations une somme de +++ [...],
- dire que les débats ne seront poursuivis que lorsque YYY aura justifiée la réalisation de ce paiement,
- déclarer la tierce-opposition fondée et rétracter l’ordonnance du [date],
- prononcer la nullité de la citation du [date],
- en tout cas déclarer l’action en référé non fondée.

***YYY conclut à la confirmation de l’ordonnance du [date]***. Pour le surplus, elle réitère ses demandes originaires..."

I believe that this means that YYY is claiming that the order should be confirmed rather than set aside, as XXX is requesting, but I have also found reference to "conclure" meaning "to enter pleadings" so I'm unsure whether I have actually understood this correctly.

Can someone enlighten me?

Thanks everyone.

Notes to answerer

Asker: It's interesting that this translation actually has "argue" in square brackets after "conclude" which reflects the definition I found that "conclure" means to plead/argue.

2 hrs confidence:

concludes that the order shall be upheld

Explanation:
Since it's a legal document, it's probably better to go with "upheld."
