non contentious
You really need to give more information regarding the context. It could also refer to out-of-court settlements, non litigation, etc. and many other things. The term is unusual in French.
Keep in mind that "extra" means "outside" in France, not "very" as in extra large.

Would this \"definition\" apply to your case:
\"All business is now to be regarded as contentious which is done before proceedings are begun, provided that the business is done with a view to proceedings being begun, and that they are in fact begun, and also all business done in the course of the proceedings. All other business is non-contentious.\" ?

: Totally. I don't think they mean 'super' here, just 'outside'.
