el contrato íntegro

Tal vez?
In a contract dispute, a court will usually look first at the "four corners" of the document, meaning that the significance of the language in the entire (or all four corners of the) contract is evaluated. In contract law, this "four corners rule" ensures that the plain meaning of the words chosen by the parties is considered. (The name had a colorful origin. It heralds back to a time when a deed had to be written on one entire skin, hence having four corners.)

If the four corners approach leaves questions unanswered, the outside circumstances surrounding the agreement's execution will be considered, including oral and written communications between the parties. The substance of oral communications ("parol evidence") would most likely have been included in the contract in the first place by means of the "merger clause" but these communications may be considered separately in the event of a dispute.
