Italian term

identità della domanda in garanzia

Italian to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Litigation involving a waste management company and the Italian government:

Va da ultimo segnalata la pendenza di un giudizio monitorio proposto da X nei confronti di Y per il pagamento dei corrispettivi derivanti dall’incarico conferito dal 2001 al 2008.

La pretesa monitoria è stata avanzata contro la Y, la quale a sua volta, ha chiamato in garanzia la Z.

Quest’ultima, fra l’altro, ha – in primo luogo – eccepito ***l’identità della domanda in garanzia*** con parte di quella già oggetto del giudizio promosso dalla Y avanti al Tribunale di [CITTA'] e definito con sentenza n. 1234/99

I understand the concept of 'domanda in garanzia' (demand on guarantor, to call as a guarantor) but the best exact wording and what

MamaG Oct 18, 2013:
identicalness, then?
Adar Brauner Oct 18, 2013:
now, I'd be pleased to see the best solution in the wording that you may elaborate for this..
David Turnbull (asker) Oct 18, 2013:
@Adar Thanks. Obvious when pointed out!
Adar Brauner Oct 18, 2013:
The meaning is that the same claim - call as a guarantor - had already been proceeded, and concluded with sentence in the quoted previous judgement -
David Turnbull (asker) Oct 18, 2013:
Last part should read... ...but the best exact wording and what IDENTITA' means in this context elude me.

identicality of the third-party (E&W: Part 20) claim {for a contribution and an INDEMNITY)

Identicality - Latin-based - would certainly be a Spanish-extrapolated meaning.

BTW, it's not a 'under warranty' cf. FHS Bridge's FR>EN glossary entry and, e.g. only in Argentina, can be a road accident's victim direct claim on the offending motorist's insurance policy.

NB in the UK, a defendant brings or joins in a third party defendant for a 'contribution & an indemnity' from the latter - it is *not* strictly a guarantee of guarantor to a creditor for a debtor's.

But the claimant a.k.a. plaintiff can add a co-defendant. That's a trick civil litigation law finals question.

But let us see what Sebastiano's esteemed Sicilian view is of my musings.

...for a debt owed by the debtor.

Slight mixing of Italian 'metaphors', David.

Y - the defendant - *joins in* Z as TP ('Part 20') *defendant*.

If X is the claimant, s/he could add Z as a *co*-defendant to Y who then becomes a *co*-defendant.

PS most UK law (Bar & Solicitors') finalists fail the civil procedure = litigation exam paper.

E&W:

X as claimant -> sues Y as defendant -> who joins in Z as a TP for a contribution and indemnity in case of judgment against Y

X
sues / \ then adds
defendant Y<> Z as a co-defendant
<> Y can bring 'contribution proceedings' against Z in case of judgment against Y
Note from asker:
Thanks for your help, Tom. My understanding is that Y - the defendant - adds Z as a a third-party co-defendant to indemnify Y. Z objects given the "identicality" of the third-party claim, already settled in the case brought by Y before the Court of [City]
Thanks for the clarification.
Peer comment(s):

agree MamaG : noted on the net - "The district court dismissed the complaint of ... on the grounds of res judicata, holding that the .... was in privity with the .... in the earlier suit and, hence, that there was identicality of parties in the two cases."

Grazie and many thanks for introducing the idea of privity into the 'quasi-contractual' context.
agree Sebastiano Massimo Barbagallo : Being called into question (even if not "as a guarantor"), and after malevolently examining Tom's answer I have unfortunately nothing to object to his answer. :-)

Grazie and thank you for being enlisted and 'implicated' as a third-party backer.
Something went wrong...
