Law/Patents - Law (general)
Czech term or phrase: Jednou
The word appears in isolation, on a line of its own.

I have three examples of this, in letters from a law firm. Each time, "Jednou" appears immediately above a series of numbered paragraphs putting forward various legal arguments.

Unspecified date/time


Explanation:
It can be translated as "once" or "once upon a time" but what it really indicates in legal terms is that time is not specified because it is not known, or not specified, or both.

sorry - it should read: "time is not specified because it is not known, or not important, or both"
