English translation:request for further information
Explanation:
Juridisk ordbog, Helle Pals-Frandsen

A formal request for more information about a party’s claim or defence or documents. The detailed provisions are set out in CPR 18. Note that the court can order a party to respond if he does not do so voluntarily. A response to a CPR 18 request is classed as a statement of case under the CPR, so responses must be verified by statements of truth. See further, Practice note, Requests for further information under CPR 18

Notes to answerer
Asker: But wouldn't this be plainly a provocation as we understand it intuitively? I was looking for the case procedure term.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Charles Ek: This is an example where knowledge of Danish civil procedure is required. The terms have very different meanings in the legal context, as indicated by the other answers provided.
