título décimo cuarto

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals Protocol amendment approval
Dear colleagues,

Would anyone know what "título décimo cuarto" is in terms of Mexican law? I am translating a protocol amendment approval document from COFEPRIS of the United Mexican States regarding a pharmaceutical clinical trial.

The text in full: "318 y 319 del Título Décimo Cuarto". I know the last bit is 14 but I'm not sure about the "título".

Many thanks in advance,

Salma

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Robert Carter

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

neutral philgoddard : I agree with your reference comment, but I don't think you can get points for it as well! Salma says she knows what "décimo cuarto" means.

Title XIV

One solid option. Common in legal provisions of constitutions, bills, etc.
Example sentence:

Title XIV of the Social Security Act is administered by the Department of Health and Human Services.
