Spanish term or phrase: oficiar a
El Mérito del Expediente N° XXX sobre violencia Psicológica tramitado ante el décimo primer Juzgado de Familia de Lima, para cuyo efecto, Señora Juez, se servirá oficiar al Juzgado de origen.

El mérito del Expediente N° XXX, sobre tenencia, tramitado ante el Séptimo Juzgado de Familia, donde se aprecia las injurias que realiza mi cónyuge en mi contra, para cuyo efecto, Señora Juez, se servirá oficiar al Juzgado de origen.

There are several points like this. Original doc from Peru, translated for Canada.

"se servirá oficiar al Juzgado de origen" I'm thinking in plain English is that the appellant here is recommending that it would be useful to send the file to the original Court. But I'm not sure, and don't know how to express that properly.

Explanation:
seems to get the sense of officially sending a document: I did think of "remit" as well, but I'm not sure that this case fits the technical sense of "remit" in legal English.
