bankruptcy dispute
I've seen a definition of this where it says a småmål refers to a case where the dispute concerns less than half of a base amount. It appears on the page describing instructions on how to appeal.
Leave to appeal is required where the dispute concerns a småmål (ett s.k. FT-mål).
(Sorry, it's quicker to give context in English).
Does anyone know an appropriate translation in (preferably UK) English?
Advice would be appreciated.
