Annex 4 list of judicial bodies

As a general rule, use English names for the names of foreign judicial bodies:

the Paris Court of Appeal.

If the translation is not an obvious one, add the original name in italics, inside round brackets and with the original capitalisation:

the Mâcon Regional Court (Tribunal de grande instance).

The brackets themselves should be in roman, as in the above example.

A list of suggested English translations is given below.
