Briefs in BrE double as 'undergarments' or a case sent to Counsel for an opnion on the *law* or an Advice on *Evidence*.

Though 'twas I who recently rasied the spectre or specter of e-filings in the London High Court for 'un e-acte', there is always a remote possibility that they may never in fact had been filed.

Otherwise, de novo, in English Common Law countries, like the USA, Can. and the UK, there are strict requirements for amendments pre- and post-trial, as one may in fact amount to a new action.

A brief shall not include any new or non-admitted amendment, or any new or non-admitted affidavit or other evidence. See § 1.116 of this title for amendments, affidavits or other evidence filed after final action but before or on the same date of filing an appeal and § 41.63 for amendments, affidavits or other evidence after the date of filing the appeal.

This does mean essentially what AllegroTrans has proposed--"in the latest version of"--but I can't see a court using that phrasing, and "pleadings" isn't the right word for the type of of documents at issue.

I've omitted "version" because litigants do not generally file different versions of briefs, motions, etc. The only time I've ever seen a different version of something filed is when the first filing contained an error and the party needed to re-file a corrected version.

The word I would expect a court to use here is simply "filings." The writings that each party files with the court, in other words.

As for saying "filings" rather than "pleadings," the term "pleadings" is incorrect here because the types of documents that the court is referring to--"une requête et un mémoire"--are not "pleadings."

The pleadings stage of a lawsuit is the very beginning. A complaint, and an answer to a complaint, are pleadings. Overview: https://www.americanbar.org/groups/public_education/resource...

But motions and briefs are not pleadings. "A motion is a request to a court for a judgment. Unlike pleadings, motions argue a point and cite cases and statutes." https://get.courtroom5.com/how-to-use-motions-pleadings-and-...

The FR court is using a very general term (écritures), and the similarly general term that courts use at least in the US is filings.

About "dernier état": this is dernier in the sense of latest or current, like so...

- dernier état financier: latest or current financial statement/latest or current balance sheet.

- dernier état de la technique: the latest technology/the most current technology

- dernier état d'avancement: current state of affairs/current progress status

- le dernier état des arriérés: the latest status of arrears

- le dernier état de la recherche: the latest research

Etc.

If you google "dernier état de leurs écritures" in quotes, tons of FR court opinions come up, always in the same context as the question here (i.e., in the "dernier état de leurs écritures," Party X has requested that the court do the following things: 1, 2 and 3...). So this is a boilerplate phrase courts often use to preface their discussion of what a litigant has asked the court to do.

And the documents in which litigants move the court to do something are NOT normally amended. It's very unusual to amend any court filing other than the very earliest ones (complaints and answers/counterclaims, in the US system). I don't think this phrase would be used so often if it implied that the documents in question had been amended, simply because motions and briefs are almost never amended. In almost 15 years of practicing law, the only times I've seen amended versions of motions or briefs filed is when the first filing had a serious error in it that needed to be corrected.

leurs écritures
their writing or correspondence

In the legal context they can be letters, submissions, correspondence, files

"By request (inquiry) and an explanatory text, the company acting by legal representation on behalf of monsieur made a request to the court in their most recent entry or submission."

"Mere" is being nothing more than what is specified, considered apart from something else, small, slight or pure.
Correspondence is written communication by exchange of letters or emails.
Correspondence can also be the act, fact or state of agreeing or conforming.

https://www.deepl.com/translator#fr/en/dans le dernier %C3%A9tat de leurs %C3%A9critures

"in the last state of their writing" is not normal English language, possibly not even in the most formalized of officially legalized courts.
"In their most recent correspondence" is a more realistic translation in connection with real life.

In formal case studies of law the only more formalized use of language involves submissions, presentations, briefs, statements of case, non-admitted or other sources of evidence in litigation.

"La societé d'expertise et de servises agissant par son représentant légal demandent à la court dans le dernier état de leurs écritures."

"The specified law services firm acting on behalf, by someone's legal representative, makes a request to the court in their most recent written correspondence." (written communication)

Apparently 'correspondence' is not accepted by three individuals who disagree.

Perhaps those individuals who disagree with written correspondence as a possibility between a specified law services firm and a court would accept 'the law firm's most recent written communication' instead of
' ... correspondence'.

Cultural disparities are a problem when some people have an unusual system of interpreting words, declining the possibility that formalized legal scenarios are based on humanity in the first instance. Those who refuse to accept correspondence or communication as possibilities are from a separate culture, since in other places a court may accept correspondence (which is written communication in the form of letters or emails).
One individual who disagreed with recent correspondence as a possible answer stated that courts see correspondence which is part of a court filing. In the case sample, the phrase 'most recent correspondence / submission / presentation or filing' (dans le dernier état de leurs écritures) implies that other written communications have been submitted and filed previously. The most recent written correspondence (communication / filing / submission / brief / statement of case etc) is therefore a part which is to be included in an already established court filing.

In the same law case study a specialized law firm has submitted (filed/submitted/presented) written communication to the court in which the law firm asks a question to the court.
Court documents filed by lawyers in their specific format is a separate issue.

It's accepted that correspondence is correspondence while filings or statements of case are filings or statements of case. However, in the case study a court had received written documentation from a specialized law firm, one way or another. A law firm has ways of filing a document or statement of case to a court. The law firm would have done so by means of sending sealed mail by postal correspondence delivery to the court, electronic mail document attachments (email correspondence) or even by document fax correspondence.

"La société d'expertise et de services agissant par son représentant légal demandent à la court dans le dernier état de leurs écritures."

("The specialized law firm, acting by a legal representative makes a request to the court in the last part (condition) of their written documentation. / In their most recent written communication to the court the law firm asks a question...")

to be in correspondence (written communication) with someone
to agree with someone
to respond to letter writing (correspondence) with someone
(être en correspondance avec quelqu'un
être d'accord avec quelqu'un
entretenir une correspondance avec quelqu'un)

[Collins Robert Concise French Dictionary,
ISBN number 0-001-470711-7]

If the Court partakes in correspondence with a person or not is the Court's own prerogative (special power or privilege) or choice. Perhaps it depends on the individuals involved or the place in which the case is found. The Court decides to inform an applicant on their decision or judgement regarding the request for money, or the Court decides not to take part in any correspondence (letter writing) with the applicant. However, if it was a decision or judgement in which the applicant had attended a court room, the outcome of the Court's decision or judgement would have been spoken and heard that same day.

(Si la Court entretient une correspondance (lettre écrite) avec quelqu'un ou non pas, c'est la prérogative (pouvoir spéciale ou le privilège) ou le choix de la Court. Peut-être ça dépend des individus impliqués ou l'endroit où se trouve le cas. La Court peut décider d'informer l'applicant de leur décision ou jugement sur la demande d'argent, ou la Court peut décider de n'entretenir pas de correspondance. Cependant, si c'était d'un jugement dans lequel l'applicant avait asisté au Court, c'était parlé comme jugement ou décision. Ce n'est pas le même.)
