Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
Norwegian term or phrase: tiltalepunkt
The following is the title of a document written up by an auditor about payments made by a company (now bankrupt, it seems). It's also used a couple of times in the body of the text. At a total loss what it means in this context.

"Gjennomgang av uttak fra foretaket knyttet til tiltalepunkter"

"Vedlagt følger oppstillinger om hvordan de enkelt beløp fra tiltalen ... var bokført de enkelte år."

Explanation:
This is not my area of expertise, so someone else might provide a better answer. Anyway, in an indictment in Norway we seperate the charges into several parts. A tiltalepunkt is one of these. I'll attach a link to site where it says more about this, it seems that they use the term indictment count or paragraph in the US.

Hope this is of any help.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi kyrrelaastad - glad that I had the right end of that stick. What mystifies me is that there's no suggestion of indictments/court cases anywhere in the text, with the exception of the use of this word...
