Hi
Please could you help with the following.
In a document about a contractual dispute:
"Le JJ/MM/AAAA XX est saisie par ZZ d'une demande de prorogation de la garantie..."
Where XX and ZZ are the banks of the contractual parties.
My suggestion: "On DD/MM/YYYY, ZZ issued a demand/claim to XX for an extension to the guarantee..."
Does anyone have anything better?
Thank you
