Spanish term

EXHORTO

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Powers of attorney
"EXHORTO 992/2005."

Followed by "REQUERIMIENTO.- En MADRID , a veintitrés de diciembre de dos mil cinco."

And what it refers to is "Yo, el Auxiliar Judicial, teniendo en mi presencia a ____________________con DNI núm. _________D, EN CALIDAD DE APODERADO DE _________, según poder Notarial otorgado a su favor ante el Notario de Madrid ___________________de fecha 21 de enero de 2004, y num. protocolo 168, que exhibe y retira, le requiero a fin de que se ratifique en el aval que se adjunta en el exhorto, manifestando a este requerimiento:

Que reconoce y se ratifica en dicho aval."

I am going to ask a separate question about the "aval"

@James Requerimiento - summons (among other choices). Sounds like they are summoning someone to ratify (some part of) the document.

It doesn't have to be to a foreign court; going to someone outside the court's jurisdiction is sufficient. For requerimiento, you can use "so requested." Depending on who it's going to and the legislation/treaties/other documents allowing it, we have "request for judicial assistance," "request for legal assistance," "letters rogatory" and various other formulations in English.
Note from asker:
The trouble is it does not seem to be to a foreign court. So best just to leave it as "request". But then I am not sure what to do with "requerimiento"

request for judicial assistance

However, if it's sent to a foreign court, it would be letters rogatory.
