French term or phrase: avec une priorité au
"Brevet déposé le 25 janvier 2013 avec une priorité au 10 septembre 2012."

I understand the patent was filed on 25 January 2013 and that its application is backdated to 10 September 2012, but what is the appropriate term for "avec une priorité au"?

Thank you.

with the priority of
Explanation:
This is referring to the priority right of a patent applicant to file a new application with the same valid date as another patent previously filed in a different country. I'd translate it as "Patent filed on 25 January 2013 with the priority of 10 September 2012."

An example of this usage can be seen at: https://www.epo.org/en/boards-of-appeal/decisions/t030623eu1

Another common option, of course, is "with the priority date of", but "date" is not given in the source text, so it it probably better to leave it out here too.

Explanation:
I wonder if this has anything to do with the other question of an 'acte' - if so what is the connection.

Example sentence(s):
  • What is priority? An applicant who has filed a first patent application for an invention has, for the purpose of filing further patent applications in respect of the same invention, a right of priority for a period of 12 months after the first filing.
