Orden común

English translation: Local/state jurisdiction/judicial system

Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law (general) / Certificado de antecedentes penales
Spanish term or phrase: Orden común
Hello,

I am translating a criminal record certificate from Mexico where it states that "no existe antecedente penal en el orden común". Does it refer to common law perhaps?

I cant seem to find the right translation for "orden comun", probably "local?

your help is much appreciated,

Many thanks

English translation:Local/state jurisdiction/judicial system
Explanation:
Most commonly seen as "fuero común" although "orden" is also quite normal, this refers to the local [or state] jurisdiction as opposed to the federal jurisdiction (fuero/orden federal). The translation of "orden" here will depend on whether they are referring to the law itself or the courts/police system. Here, it presumably refers to records held in the state court system.

Es muy importante saber que:
• La mayoría de los delitos y sus correspondientes castigos se encuentran señalados en los códigos penales.
• Cada estado de nuestro país tiene su propio Código Penal, que se aplica dentro de su territorio. Por lo tanto, existen treinta y dos códigos penales, incluyendo el del Distrito Federal. Pero todos están regidos por los principios generales que establece la Constitución Política de nuestro país.
• Por mandato de la ley, los delitos pueden ser del fuero común o del fuero federal, es decir, que se persiguen al interior de los estados o en toda la República.
