Spanish term

diligencia de exposición de hechos

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Folio tercero de ***diligencia de exposición de hechos**

It's the heading for a page of text describing an incident in which someone died (presumably as the result of having taken some kind of drug). The text also covers the steps taken to investigate the death and includes some speculation on a related point.

Any suggestions for the most appropriate English (UK) equivalent? Thanks
