designated company


Explanation:
anweisen is to instruct. So literally, it's the company on which the court instructed the prosecutor? to serve papers
served to the angewiesenen company on 26.02

to serve - to effect service of papers or process
anweisen - to direct
Zustellung is service of process. http://www.babylon.com/definition/Service_of_process/German

I'm not sure if "designated" is the proper legal term. Maybe specified.

Notes to answerer
Asker: thanks, the term is throughout 19 pages of a "Stellungsnahme" - I started out with "instructed" because they are definitely instructed to surrender papers. - now I am at "ordered" - designated and specified sounds good, but doesn't really imply them having to do anything (in my mind) thanks all, so far

Asker: all the terms were good and definitely correct - thanks
