Spanish term

actúa en representación por suplencia

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Taken from a letter from the Procuraduria de Proteccion de Derechos de Ninas, Ninos y Adolescentes in Mexico City to the US Embassy in Mexico City, pertaining to minor children who have been removed from their parents due to violence in the home. The full sentence is:
Que conforme al articulo xx, fraccion xx de la ley general de los derechos de Ninos, Ninas y adolescentes, esta procuraduria actua en representacion por suplencia de los Ninos, motivo de intervencion.
Many thanks!

ought to spring to American or British mind ...
Example sentence:

UK: A Deputy is supervised and regulated by the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) whilst appointees are regulated by the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP).

USA/Cal. The judge may appoint more than one limited conservator (co-conservators). In some cases a private professional conservator is appointed. The county public guardian may be appointed if no one else is available.

Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : cannot see (even impliedly) Judicially Appointed (AmE) Co-Conservator (BrE) Alternate Deputy; only thing maybe "springing to mind" is "in loco parentis"
