Resultando/Considerando

English translation: Therefore / Whereas

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:Resultando/Considerando
English translation:Therefore / Whereas
Entered by: Margarita Ezquerra (Smart Translators, S.L.)

Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Memorandum of understanding
Spanish term or phrase: Resultando/Considerando
The same document has "Resultando" and "Considerando" as titles. My doubt is as to whether I should translate both as "whereas"or whether I should use a different term to avoid repetition. The document is a short addendum to a memorandum of understanding. Thanks in advance!

disagree  AllegroTrans: Yes you can and if you look at legal documents you will find this is not only normal, it is extremely common - just have a Google and you will find hundreds of them...e.g http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si1997/97006403.htm

findings of fact / reasoning of law


Explanation:
Diccionario de Terminología Jurídica Mexicana

Resultando = findings of fact (upon which judgment is based).
Considerando = Reasoning of law, reasons or legal basis given by the court in support of its judgment.

neutral  AllegroTrans: This is basically correct, but repeating these phrases for every occurrence of the words would be very OTT!!
