appeal
Explanation:
Not sure, but expect this is just an appeal to a higher level, as opposed to an appeal to the body or person issuing the resolution. You should be able to tell from overall context. E.g. I expect the on issuing the resolution is at a lower level than the Minister.

If so, I'd translate it as just "appeal", though "appeal to a higher level" might work, too.

Explanation:
Hi, Robert.
You are right, the "recurso de alzada" is a certain kind of appeal. I think that it is filed in the case of administrative resolutions (that is, not judicial), but I am not sure.
