Spanish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) notarial instruments
Hi everyone!
This is taken from a Uruguayan contract for the sale of a piece of land, to be translated into US English:

D) En la escritura de antecedentes se controló el Certificado Especial expedido por el Banco de Previsión Social el 13 de junio de 2014 con el número 140078/2014, que habilitaba a enajenar el padrón objeto del presente, y según lo declarado por el vendedor con posterioridad no se realizaron obras, modificaciones ni demoliciones.

notarial record of title (BrE: epitome of title)

Record rather than (US) recordation (UK) registration of title to land.

Deed of Recitals looks back to front to me, namely there are recitals to Deed of Land.

Here seems to be record of title that, in UK unregistered land, would call for an epitome (list) or abstract based on the 'muniments of title' to show a 'good of title'.

Country-neiutral for fans of 'offshore English' might be record of title.

I agree that a covenant would be contained in a Deed of Land, but cannot see any specific planning restraints or 'negative pledges', namely to refrain from charging or mortgaging the land.

PS Having had, many years ago, conveyancing experience only from the US Fed. State of Oregon, I have s hunch that this record might - in the USA - be a prelude to an escrow reg. of the land.
