Law/Patents - Law (general) / Criminal Law
Italian term or phrase: sussistenti
I'm translating a request for dismissal and I'm having a hard time with this sentence:

"- rilevato che gli elementi acquisiti non consentono di ritenere sussistenti, nel caso di specie, gli estremi delle fattispecie penali per cui si procede;"


Context: It's at the beginning, where it lists the "whereas"

My attempt: given that the evidence acquired does not provide grounds, in the present case, for the criminal offenses in this proceeding;

Did I translate the meaning correctly?
Is "ritenere sussistenti" = "Having grounds" in this case?

Thank you in advance.

are met
Explanation:
i.e. that the prerequisites for the criminal offences are met

You need to translate "estremi" as well by the way (you've left it out of your suggested translation):

non consentono di ritenere che sussistano ... gli estremi delle fattispecie penali

You definitely pointed me in the right direction! Thank you!
The meaning is actually that the evidence shows that the prerequisites of the offence are NOT met.. meaning there is insufficient evidence...
But your suggestion helped me simplify it and realize I was trying to translate too literally.

I decided to go with "given that the evidence acquired, in the present case, does not meet the requisites of the criminal offenses object of this proceeding"
