Secretaría > Clerk's Office / Administrative Office
So "Sect. Única" would mean "Sole Clerk's Office" or "Sole (Court) Administrative Office".
I'm sure this is what it stands for, and "secretario" normally means a court clerk, though I'm not completely sure of the best term for Argentina. "Dra." in the following ref. indicates that it's headed by a lawyer (which is also true in Spain now).
"Apellido y Nombre: Dra. Orlandelli, Monica Beatriz
Funcion: Secretario
Dependencia: Cámara Nacional de Apelaciones en lo Civil / Juzgado Civil Nro. 26 / Secretaría Unica"

Thanks, Robert :-) I don't know about that; your negative roll is still better than most people's positive!
