Law/Patents - Law (general) / Abkürzung | | German term or phrase: VFG | Aus einem gerichtlichen Bescheid in Zusammenhang mit einer Nachlasssache:
In der Nachlasssache

Ich nehme an, dass EL der Erblasser ist (in meinem Fall der verstorbene Ehemann).
Die andere Person ist die Erbin, seine Witwe....aber was bedeutet VFG? Irgendwas in Richtung Verfügung??? |

If it is, indeed, "Verfügungsgegner," then you might consider translating it as "respondent," depending on the context, i.e., the parties actual position in the matter (for the use of "Verfügungsgegner" in the context of "Erbrecht" see http://tinyurl.com/yzdxuff ).
