The f/acts being judged occurred prior to the decree Explanation: Literally. It seems pretty straightforward to me. The actions/events/acts/facts in question occurred before the decree referred to. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 mins (2017-07-04 16:18:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I mean if you don't like the wording, for example "judged", you can rephrase it, but the actual meaning seems pretty straightforward. |

the incidents in question happened before Spain's military ... Explanation: ...took over the country's air traffic control. OR "the incidents in question happened before the government ordered Spain's military to take over the country's air traffic control" The events took place before the emergency decree was issued. |
