Spanish term

sentencia de caracter constitutivo

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
This is from a Mexican legal document about points of procedure

la sentencia de amparo unicamente puede ser de caracter declarativo y jamas puede ser de caracter constitutivo

I know what it means but can't find the right term for it - establishing or essential ruling doesn't work.

constitutive judgment (definition in brackets on first occurrence)

You might find a good definition to place in brackets below.

Perhaps mixing it up with something like “constitutive judgment (judgment that creates, modifies or dissolves a legal right, status or relationship)”

sentencia constitutiva judgment that creates, modifies or dissolves legal relationships.
