Forensic medicine inside the Supreme Court
Nicaragua places its Instituto de Medicina Legal under the Corte Suprema de Justicia, so forensic medical reports are issued by an institution of the judiciary.
That is a different institutional position from neighbouring countries where forensics sits under the prosecution, and it is part of the report's standing. We name the institute and the judicial branch.
The dictamen médico legal
The routine instrument is a dictamen médico legal on a standard form recording injuries, the mechanism and an assessed healing period, which classifies the offence.
The healing period is a legal finding rather than a clinical note, and we translate it as written.
Peritos in civil matters
In civil matters the court appoints an expert, and the 2015 procedural code reorganised the procedure, so documents from before and after cite different rules.
We reproduce the code and article as cited rather than modernising them.
The cédula, and the Caribbean coast
Experts are identified by cédula, whose number encodes the municipality of registration and the date of birth, and by their professional registration.
A forensic examination on the Caribbean coast may record interpretation from Miskito, Creole English or Rama, and we translate that note. See our Spanish page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
