BV, KV
German to English
Law/Patents
In a transcript of a proceedings before the Commerce Tribunal of Vienna, the abbreviations BV and KV appear as presenting or arguing.
I would like to presume that these abbreviations stand for Klägervertreter und Beklagtenvertreter or something similiar.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much!

Beklagtenvertreter, Klägervertreter
I think you are right, therefore:
representative of the defendant and representative of the plaintiff. In Germany they are very common abbreviations in court docs.

KV = Klaegervernehmung
This one I am less sure of.

Vernehmung in this context equals questioning, examination or interrogation.
As you know, direct examination occurs when the attorney who has called the witness questions that witness.
Beschuldigtenvernehmung ought to equal questioning the accused or the defendant.
Klaegervernehmung ought to equal questioning the plaintiff.
Let your context be your guide

KV could also equal Klagsvorbringen, but this means \"allegations contained in the complaint\" and probably would not fit here.

I agree with you the abbreviations are meant to designate a speaker.
