Spanish term

manifiesta improponibilidad de la demanda

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) litigation (for USA)
En el caso de autos, el demandado fue prolijo en el cumplimiento de su deber de exhaustividad alegatoria y con ello fijó, de su parte, los límites objetivos que debían condicionar el ejercicio de la facultad decisoria que jurisdiccionalmente corresponde al Juez (sic) sobre la “litis” que las partes transportaron al proceso (...) el demandado señalo en el escrito de contestación de la demanda lo siguiente: La inexistencia de objeto que surge de la demanda por haberse demandado pretensiones que no pueden acumularse y que obligaban a la declaración judicial de manifiesta improponibilidad de la demanda.

Thank you in advance!

Note from asker:
Thank you, Rosa. I have been reading different documents containing this word (that is in NO dictionary) and I think I understand what it means but can't find an equivalent. Considering that it is so frequently used in some countries, I'm surprised no one has coined an equivalent.
