    Please note the following version:

    3.2 Notwithstanding article 3.1, any of the parties of this contract can annul it unilaterally in its entirety without incurring any liability for which it will be sufficient an authentic written advice of their will within 30 days previous to the date of annulment.



    I hope this helps.

    Check your spelling responsibility, being, communication

    This is a good translation but the paragraph states "at least" (por lo menos) 30 days before the cancellation not "within" (dentro) and the phrase "to the other party" must be included.

    I think cancel is the better choice over anull; and intention is the better choice over will.

    Here is my suggestion:

    Notwithstanding the previous article (3.1) any of the parties has the full right to unilaterally cancel this contract it in its entirety, without penalty, by communicating their intentions, at least 30 days prior to the date of cancellation, by any proper written means to the other party(ies).

    I agree with you Vicente, "intention" is a better word, and the part about 30 days is ambiguous in the original, so does the translator have to carry that ambiguity to the translation? I suppose she has to, she can't make a decision about the certainty of its meaning, can she?

    Cheers

    Hi Nira:

    I don't do legal translations but I would think not.

    Spanish is not my strength but doesn't "por lo menos treinta días antes de la fecha de la rescisión",mean at least 30 days before the date of the cancellation? That is without doubt what a contract would contain...a 30 day (or more) notice. For instance, in an apartment lease contract, a lessee must give the lessor 30 days notice prior to moving out if they plan to abandon the apartment before the lease expires.

    To say "within 30 days" before the cancellation date would allow one party to cancel uniterally, wait 29 days and then advise the other party just one day before the cancellation date.

    At least, that's how I would interpret it.

    Your turn

    Yes, it does, vicente.

    I never noticed that. Good point and, as ususal, very well observed.
