Arabic term

Arabic to English Law/Patents Law (general) قضية
مثل المتهمون بالحقوق المدنية و طلبوا أصليا عدم أختصاص المحكمة نوعيا
I would like to know the perfect translation of مثل in this context

Fuad Yahya Mar 11, 2010:
Tips on how to post a question in KudoZ Step One: Decide which word or string of words represents your "term." In this case, for example, it is the word مثل

Step Two: Insert that word alone, without any other words, in the "Term" field. Posting the whole phrase, like
مثل المتهمون بالحقوق المدنية
makes for a confusing post. Notice how your answerers are confused about what you need.

Step Three: In the "Context" field, insert the actual context where you found the term. Provide ample context, not a cut-off phrase. This usually means a full sentence or more. Make sure that the context you provide leads up to and continues after the term, espcially if the term, like the tem in this question, is the kind of term that flows from and leads to other parts of the text. A term like مثل does not make sense unless it is preceded by other texts. Otherwise, it may be open to other interpretation.

Thank you.

the defendants in the civil action proceedings appeared before the court

the civil action is instituted by those who claim for damages, against the defendants who represent the adverse party in this action.

I add a necessary explanation, as an attorney at law, that the legal expression in Arabic leads to confusion. In fact, nobody is "accused" as regards civil rights, because we talk about a civil action, and the defendants in any civil action are often requested to pay damages . I can conclude from this sentence that there was a criminal action having also a civil part before the court. The defendants did not violate civil rights, they are the adverse party against whom damages are claimed. What is meant by civil rights is primarily the right to compensation or damages, ie a remedy to the crime that has been committed.
