Spanish term (edited): sin hacer expresa imposici�n - without imposing?

I really think this is the same as a previous question, because "sin expresa declaración en cuanto a (la imposición de) costas" is another way (a different judge perhaps?) of saying "sin hacer expresa imposición (de costas)" As I indicated previously, "imposición de costas" ordering the losing party to pay the prevailing party's court costs is expressed "positively" in English as an "award of costs"
to the prevailing party.


AWARD OF COSTS TO PREVAILING PARTY - Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(d)(1) provides, in pertinent part, that 'costs other than attorneys' fees shall be allowed as of course to the prevailing party unless the court otherwise directs.' Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(d)(1). Rule 54(d)(1) creates a presumption in favor of awarding costs to the prevailing party. See Klein v. Grynberg, 44 F.3d 1497, 1506 (10th Cir.'95); Congregation of the Passion v. Touche, Ross & Co., 854 F.2d 219, 22 (7th Cir.'88). This presumption is supported by the explicit language of Rule 54(d)(1), which makes the award of costs to a prevailing party automatic in the absence of an express direction to the contrary by the district court. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(d)(1) (providing that costs 'shall be allowed as of course . . . unless the court otherwise directs'); see also Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine v. George A. Fuller Co., 801 F.2d 908, 10 (7th Cir.'86); Subscription Television, Inc. v. Southern Cal. Theatre Owners Ass'n, 576 F.2d 230, 34 (9th Cir.'78).
