peer agreement (net): +1to declare guilty in absentia Explanation: I don't think there really is an equivalent in English-speaking countries, as far as I know. Since we have "to try in absentia" we might extend the idea, if "contestar afirmativamente," is to mean confess, or declare oneself guilty. |

34 mins confidence:
declared to be in agreement by default Explanation: No necesariamente se trata de "guilty", con frecuencia se trata de causas civiles con el uso de la misma frase. En el caso, "se allana a la demanda" por su ausencia; es decir por no contestar ni defenderse se le tiene confesando todo lo que se expone en su contra. O sea que por no oponerse ni decir palabra, pierde. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-09-30 18:18:16 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- En inglés la sentencia que se emite en tal caso se denomina \"default judgment\". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-09-30 18:19:30 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Previa notificación de la demanda por ley, lógicamente.
