Spanish term

cancelado con debido aviso.

Spanish to English Other Law (general)
Self explanatory I guess. It refers to a class whose cancellation occurs in compliance with the number of days' notice that the regulation stipulates. I'm a bit lost as to how to express the "debido" since "due notice" sounds somewhat unconvincing. Thanks
Proposed translations (English)
5 cancelled with proper notice
4 +3 Prior notice must be given if you wish to cancel
4 cancelled upon statutory notice
3 due notice given in case of cancellation

Here... It's a category (a possible way of cancellation) that literally stated "cancelado con aviso", "cancelación con aviso" would equally work.
Thanks

cancelled upon statutory notice

:)
Peer comment(s):
neutral AllegroTrans : sounds "heavy" in the context of a class, especially "statutory notice" which has other implications, i.e. it is contained in a Statute or Act, which I doubt in this case

Thanks for your observation, Allegro, but the asker was not happy with mere "due notice". Statutory applies to company rules as well, imho.

Prior notice must be given if you wish to cancel

The full sentence in context would help as the translation could be rephrased to sound more English within the context of the sentence. Here's an idea anyway, there will be lots more.

Hmm, for the name of the category you could just put "cancelled with prior notice". Would that work?

It seems that "cancelled with sufficient (prior) notice" is used. See:

Note from asker:
I guess it would Rebecca. Any other way to come at the fact that such prior notice was given early enough? (and then again comes into play the "debida"). Maybe there just isn't a way. I was thinking of the Spanish "antelación" or "anticipación" as pointers.

neutral Henry Hinds : It seems to refer to cancellation of the class here, not of a student's registration. You appear to be adding a lot more to this than what is really there.

agree Carol Gullidge : cancelled with prior notice - although I actually see nort wrong with "without due notice"

due notice given in case of cancellation

I'm afraid I like "due notice" and feel it's the correct term here. See links.
