Law/Patents - Law: Taxation & Customs
German term or phrase: Im Fall Ihrer Verhinderung können Sie zum Termin auch einen mit der Sachlage ver
I believe this sentence is telling me how to contact the person if I am unable to personally meet by an appointed date. I would like more clarity. The phrase is Austrian german, from a document sent by an "öffentlicher Notar"
e.vonweltin
In case you are not able to come to the appointment...
Explanation:
In case you are not able to come to the appointment, you can also * delegate* it to somebody, who is familiar with the circumstances

whereas delegate is guessing, as that bit of the sentence is missing.
