Απλώς μαντεύω, γιατί χωρίς συγκείμενο ....!
Ίσως δεν έχει εκδοθεί κάποιο πιστοποητικό για τον εν λόγω γάμο.

Στο Χρυσοβιτσιώτη βρήκα την τελευταία σημασία για τη λέξη που είναι απόγονοι, κατιόντες συγγενείς. Δεν ξέρω αν βοηθάει, με προβληματίζει η πρόθεση for.

Κοίταξε και αυτά (από dictionary.law.com) που νομίζω επιβεβαιώνουν την άποψή μου, είτε ως έκδοση πιστοποιητικού ή ως απόγονοι:

issue
1) n. a person's children or other lineal descendants such as grandchildren and great-grandchildren. It does not mean all heirs, but only the direct bloodline. Occasionally, there is a problem in determining whether a writer of a will or deed meant issue to include descendants beyond his or her immediate children. While a child or children are alive, issue refers only to them, but if they are deceased then it will apply to the next living generation unless there is language in the document which shows it specifically does not apply to them. 2) n. any matter of dispute in a legal controversy or lawsuit, very commonly used in such phrases as "the legal issues are," "the factual issues are," "this is an issue which the judge must decide," or "please, counsel, let us know what issues you have agreed upon.

That's what c refers to. Τώρα προσπαθώ να σκεφτώ απόδοση στα ελληνικά... Όπως νόμιζα, it has to do with the divorce being uncontested, i.e. they mutually want it, but I had to be sure because New York has so many forms and stipulations, it culd have been referring to anything under the sun...

By the way, if you scrol down to the second page of the link I sent you, you will see the available applicable causes for action.

I think it might be as simple as νομική βάση. What do you think?

When responding to your note above, it occured to me that I misrepresented what a cause for action is a bit. While often uncontested divorces have no cause for action, they are not synonymous. A cause for action means there being a reason for court intervention in the forms of penalties or awards (alimony or other monetary amounts or even the issuance of the divorce) or further legal action (carges for abuse, restraining orders) for some type of illegitimate behaviour.

Δεν υπάρχει βάση για νομικη παρέμβαση

perhaps?
