Dutch term or phrase: sporenzaak
Currently working on a functional design document describing decadactyloscopic fingerprinting systems, and in defining several items it lists the term above, which is becoming somewhat of a roadblock given my resources.

Context is as follows:

Definitie sporenzaak

De sporenzaak bevat administratieve gegevens en één of meerdere afdruksporen, met betrekking tot één misdrijf. Het kunnen zowel vingersporen en/of handpalmsporen zijn. De sporen zullen fotografisch of elektronisch naar de (GID) overgemaakt worden.
De sporenzaak bevat ook de alfanumerieke gegevens betreffende het feit. Deze gegevens worden opgeslagen in SIAF.
De sporenzaak wordt geregistreerd in het systeem en er wordt een SIAF nummer toegekend.
Dit nummer is uniek en sequentieel.
Verschillende sporen kunnen in verschillende fazen toegevoegd worden aan een bestaand nummer van een sporenzaak.

Thanks... this got the wheels turning more or less in the right direction. "sporen" are the equivalent of latent prints (i.e. traces of fingerprints, palm-/handprints), while "zaak" was more along the lines of a "case file" which I should have seen... but attaching the word "file" wasn't so evident until reading this answer. I've come to find these are referred to a as LPCs or (L)atent (P)rint (C)ase files

Explanation:
well, that´s what´s in it, and maybe the whole file can be called this as well, but I couldn´t find a satisfactory answer to that.
