I think we'd all be better off if we could see the term as it's actually used in your document.

You say you have already translated it properly, but if you need help from translators you need to give them the relevant SOURCE text so they have something to work with.

Note from asker:
| That is how it is used within the text. It lists the "Appellant: Name, represented by:", then "belangte Behoerde: Princely Supreme Court", then"in the matter of: violation of constitutional rights and those guaranteed under the European Convention on Humang Rights". That's all there is. |
| I have just decided to go with "Appeal against". Note: I didn't include the original text because I have already translated it properly. Thank you so much for your time, though. I appreciate it. |
