Law/Patents - Law (general) | | Spanish term or phrase: venimos a INTERESAR SE CONTINUE CON LA INSTRUCCIóN DE ESTE PROCEDIMIENTO | Spain, Court Case.
Overall argument is that the courts should proceed with preliminary investigation.
"interesar se continúe" seems like error me (practically no hits online) , but I cannot figure out the intended expression.
Sense of "interesar" not clear. |

| | English translation:Seek / request | Explanation:
Hi Phillip,
"Interesar" when used in a legal context, has the meaning of "to seek" (as in permission, authorisation...) or "to request" (as in a procedure, enquiry, etc...) be carried out.
This is the definition of the DRAE.
"7. tr. Solicitar o recabar de alguien datos, noticias, resoluciones, etc."
Some other examples:
- Escrito a presentar ante el Juzgado de lo Penal **interesando** la suspensión de la ejecución de la pena impuesta por Sentencia que ha devenido firme.
Citas:
Ley Orgánica 10/1995, de 23 de noviembre, del Código Penal.
- Escrito de la Acusación Particular **Interesando** la Apertura del Juicio Oral
Formularios de derecho penal (2005)
-----o-------
Basically, they're saying here "We request the continuation of....etc"
Contrary to what some here have stated, this construction is not grammatically "wrong". It's an increasingly common phenomenon to use introduce the subjunctive without the use of "que".
"Se ruega dejen los bolsos a la entrada"
instead of
"Se ruega que dejen los...."
And "instruir" "instrucción" have nothing to do with "instructions".
"Instruir" is to investigate, collect evidence, prepare the preliminary proceedings, etc....
Look up Alcaraz Varó - very useful.

I don’t usually hold with the idea of posting endless google hits, but I think in this case it’s worth it just to show that this expression is a very common one……if you read about court cases in Spain, of course.
