Claim for losses
Would there be an appropriate legal term for this? The context is a reference, in a company statement of accounts, to a claim brought against the state by the company:
Adicionalmente, la Agrupación ha presentado un escrito de reclamación de responsabilidad patrimonial contra la Administración en reclamación de daños y perjuicios causados *de forma objetiva* por la aprobación tanto del Real Decreto 9/2013, como del Real Decreto 413/2015.
Many thanks!

objectively
Damages were determined objectively, not subjectively, relying on empirical data.
Note from asker:
| Many thanks Michael - you've confirmed what I suspected, although I wasn't sure that something could be "caused objectively" - perhaps I need something along the lines of "whose cause has been determined objectively as..." |

: Perhaps "caused" is not the best translation for "causados"in this case...

@Spanruss: I think a literal translation is fine.
@Emma: "objectively caused by" works perfectly well, you don't need to change it to "whose cause is determined objectively"; that's not the meaning.
