This certificate hereby states:
This occurence of the word "conducentes" comes from the intransitive form of the verb "conducir". The REA states as to its meaning: "ser a proposito para algún fin.” Therefore the phrase “partes conducentes” refers to the elements of the document which are meant to produce a result or results in particular. The English “hereby” according to the OED has a similar use in Anglo-Saxon legalese in that it means: “as a result of this document or utterance.”

: I can't help but comment, since you really were on the right track until you got to "hereby", so those dictionaries will only get you so far!
