HEARING for entering judgment


Explanation:
VISTO: Para dictar sentencia el recurso interpuesto ante este tribunal

HEARING for entering judgment in the appeal filed before this court

Es que en México todo se hace por escrito, en USA se oye, no es literal sino que es lo que se entiende, por eso uso HEARING, el equivalente funcional. Nadie lo critica, todo lo contrario.

disagree  Sheilann: Hearing is Vista. Visto is Examined or Reviewed
13 hrs
  -> You are correct. However, as I have pointed out, "hearing" is a functional equivalent, not literal. I've used it for years and years, and it works!

WHEREAS: In order to pass a sentence ...


Explanation:
"VISTO" is a header. It is the start of a preamble, which could be a single sentence, a list of premises or a series of paragraphs. The part that follows is a separate clause. It could be translated a number of ways depending what FOLLOWS. Another possibility might be: "Prior to passing sentence ..." There isn't enough context to complete the asker's question.
