Polish term or phrase: nieporadność

Uzasadnienie postanowienia sądowego:
Zgodnie z art. 117 § 5 kodeksu postępowania cywilnego, sąd może ustanowić stronie pełnomocnika procesowego z urzędu, jeżeli uzna jego udział w procesie za potrzebny. o takiej potrzebie można mówić, gdy spełniona zostanie przesłanka przedmiotowa (...) lub przesłanka podmiotowa w postaci nieporadności strony wnoszącej o ustanowienie pełnomocnika z urzędu, niezdolności do samodzielnego podejmowania czynności procesowych w sprawie i niemożności ...
inny fragment:
... z podejmowanych przez niego w toku postępowania działań nie wynika, aby był on osobą nieporadną lub nie posiadającą orientacji w sprawie.
Czyli jest to termin prawniczy, ale ja nie mogę znaleźć takiego terminu w rejestrze prawniczym. Proszę o pomoc.

Fragment z tego dokumentu:According to the commentaries and jurisprudence, those criteria include legal or factual complexity of the case as assessed by the court, and helpless- ness of the applicant. The “need” to involve an attorney may also stem from principles of an adversarial trial system when one party is assisted by an attorney and the other is not.

Legal Services Comission: "What is social justice?

Our work is fundamental to social and legal justice. In a democratic society all citizens have a right to access justice and get a fair trial.

Many people struggle to understand their legal rights and obligations. They often feel helpless when faced with problems. Without help they are unable to resolve these issues."

resourcelessness

Explanation:
resource --> one's capacity to deal with a problem
resourcelessness --> lack of this particular capacity

Example sentence(s):

"The soldier's cowed reaction, his resourcelessness that emerges in the ensuing dialogue with the parasite, was meant as a parody of law's efficacy in Greek New Comedy rather than as a contribution to the convention." from Scafuro's 'The Forensic Stage"
