Italian to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / power of attorney
Italian term or phrase: precisandone confini
From the power of attorney for the purchase of property by a foreign buyer.

The powers granted to the attorney:

= intervenire nell'atto di vendita e meglio identificare il cespite e le sue pertinenze, ***precisandone confini*** e dati catastali;

= to be party to the deed sale and better identify the asset and its appurtenances, specifying the boundaries....?

Looking for the correct way to say this in English legalese of course...

describing more particularly the boundaries thereof


Explanation:
In UK unregistered conveyancing (called a 'Purchase Deed'), note the difference 1. described or delineated more particularly in a map or plan: the latter prevails over the words of the Deed 2. referred - for identification only - to a plan: the words of the conveyance take precedence.

Query: whether confini include the building lines as in a recent ProZ FR/EN 'les confronts' question.

PS refer to my profile for Italian conveyancing 'goal scoring'.

Example sentence(s):
  • This was a conveyance of "the property more particularly described in the schedule hereto."
  • It was no doubt convenient to refer to the map in subsequent conveyances for identification purposes. But these references did not enable the owner to convey to another a title to land over which he himself had no title.

neutral  philgoddard: You could have made this even longer by saying "describing, delineating and defining".

  -> Not so in UK and US conveyancing practic/se, both of which you should be conversant with.
