Contingencia

Spanish to English Law/Patents Real Estate
Hi everyone,

The full sentence is:

Las fincias no deben tener ningún contencioso ni contingencia en sus linderos respecto al catastro y Registros de la Propiedad.

Would this be referring to the fact the boundaries of the properties detailed in the cadastre/land registries must not be disputed or open to/at risk of being disputed?

Thanks
Nick

contingency

Yes, you are right. To paraphrase what they are saying: property boundaries should not be contested or defined as contingent (dependent on some arbitrary condition). They must be clearly defined, final and permanent.

pending / land / action

I agree with the risk-analysis vs. possibly 'planning blight' that was my hunch, but think this is how it would be expressed in BrE.

Would be useful to know what country this is from - contingencia sanitaria meaning a health hazard in Mexico - and what is the target readership.

I assume the contingencia is not a typo for contienda also meaning a dispute.

Countries using the 'cadastral' Continental System would roughly equate with the Ordnance Survey Map-based Index.

....en sus linderos respecto al catastro y Registros de la Propiedad > in their boundaries with respect to the BrE: *index map office* a.k.a. land survey registry and the Land Registries.
Example sentence:

Boundaries . 7916— 79. Proviso as to actions , etc. , pending.

The register of pending actions records the existence of certain kinds of litigation or disputed claim affecting a title to unregistered land
