Precedents Explanation: How about translating it as "precedents?" That's how I usually translate it. I checked Diccionario de Términos Jurídicos (Enrique Alcaraz Varó/Brian Hughes) to confirm. Cheers. |

I would go with Legal Arguments Explanation: When a judge (in a civil law setting) passes judgement, he/she is obligated to make note of the legal provisions applied to the case in fact and the legal arguments to support such applicability. At least that's what they tought me at law school in Mexico. Best of luck! |

Law Fundamentals Explanation: Derecho es el conjunto de leyes que controlan una sociedad, por ejemplo, en inglés se utiliza como "Law". "Rights" mas bien sería como derechos humanos, o algo por el estilo. Creo que en este caso se está refiriendo al Derecho en General. |

legal grounds Explanation: According to Tom West's Spanish-English Dictionary of Law and Business, "fundamentos de derecho = legal grounds." I'm no lawyer, but this seems to be a broader term which may include precedents (precedentes) among other legal arguments. |
