Or possibly, which I had before me. Without more context, impossible to say.

Thank you.
neutral Jennifer Levey : How can we be sure the 'acta' is in fact a 'certificate'. It might be some other kind of 'legal instrument'. Hopefully, Asker's context will clarify... And agree with Juan Jacob, it must be 'me'.

which record he had sight of

vs. which certificate was sighted - the spelling confusable with 'cited'.

cf. tengo a la vista : I have before me, West, but prospective beneficiaries of a Will often ask for 'sight' of such before challenging the dispositions.

PS I may have missed something, but I don't see any ProZ answer into English with the run-of-the-mill or 'copperplate' sight term.



Example sentence:

teniendo a la vista en las actuaciones caratuladas.... y teniendo a la vista las actuaciones caraturaladas having at sight the records filed English translation:which appear before me/I have seen/I have before me/I have compared/I have seen

Applicants will be able to have sight of procedural documents

Note from asker:
Thank you very much
