  -> Thanks Barend, with Tina as backup you should be,no?
agree  Kitty Brussaard: Or to meet Barend's objections, and thus improving on the source: Each of (...) are applicable alternatively. But then again, the 2nd part of the sentence leaves little doubt as to how the 1st part should be read, even if a literal translation is used.

(ref. to pleading) do apply in the alternative


Explanation:

... my answer...

Example sentence(s):
  • Alternative pleading permits a party in a court action to argue multiple possibilities that may be mutually exclusive by making use of legal fiction.
