Lease agreement
Good morning/afternoon,
I've finished this long lease agreement document and the agency came back to me with an inquiry about the above term which appears in the 'watermark' or background of every page.
I personally am not sure that it needs to be translated but will send him/them something just in case.
Thanks for your input.
Bon weekend,
Richard

Standard lease - ancien forum/Old Forum
Yes, at least the first two words should definitely be translated as the meaning is important and needs to be communicated just as it would be if it were a heading.

If it is Montreal, then the place name should also be translated unless there is a specific reason for not doing so.

"Former Forum" is a really bad alliteration. Avoid!

Jurisdiction
Is there any room for a "previous jurisdiction"? (Bridge p 138)

Well, given the definition of "forum" as "court", jurisdiction", perhaps it might be worth thinking of that. Not having come across it, I don't know

Old Forum Standard Lease .
Thanks all of your for all of your constant great help.

In actuality, Forum is part of the formal name of one of their leaseable properties.
Sorry I've been out all day. No, it is in France.
