Law/Patents - Law (general) / Compeared
English term or phrase: Compeared
What does the word 'compeared' mean? I cannot find this word in the dictionary. In the context like: 'At Kirkcaldy on the ...day of April two thousand and nineteen, in the presence of Joe Bloggs, solicitor and Notary Public, ... Leven, COMPEARED: Joe Bloggs, residing ...... who having affirmed gives evidence as follows.'

Please help. Thank you.

出庭证人/出庭者/出庭方/出庭原告/出庭被告
Explanation:
如果你查看维基百科的英文字典,就可以发现这个词是专门用在苏格兰地区的法律术语:
compear
1. (obsolete) To appear before.
2. (law, Scotland) To appear before a judge in court personally or by attorney.

而原文中的Kirkcaldy正好又是苏格兰地区的一个镇:
柯科迪(Kirkcaldy)是一座位于苏格兰法夫的镇和前皇家自治镇。距离爱丁堡北部11.6英里(19千米),邓迪西南27.6英里(44千米) 。2011年人口普查时有49,709人,是法夫最大的人口聚居地。

原文最后一句的大意是:...确认给出如下证据。所以如果能确定他是证人,就可以更为精确地翻译成:“出庭证人”,或者确定他是原告或者被告,可以翻译为:“出庭原告”/“出庭被告”,如果不确定,就可以翻译成“出庭人/出庭者”,具体情况具体处理会比较好一些。希望我的答案有帮助到你。
