Hi, there.

Appellate ruling: sentencia apelada (decisi�n judicial emanada del juzgado o tribunal de primera instancia sobre la que una de las partes ha interpuesto un recurso de apelaci�n a fin de que la C�mara de Apelaciones o segunda instancia judicial revise dicha sentencia de primera instancia).

Legal brief: presentaci�n legal (escrito judicial que resume un caso).

Hope this helps!!

And talking about "brief" in the legal world...how would you translate the name of this novel, "Pelican Brief"...I think there was a film as well based on this book, but the name was completely changed...Any suggestions?

I do remember this film perfectly well, especially because Denzel Washington was the main actor (

).

I agree with the marketing experts, I think that considering the plot of this film, the best translation is "Informe Pel�cano".
