English term

deliverable (of person)

English Law/Patents Law (general) a person's qualities
A person is referred to as being DELIVERABLE.
I wonder if the adjective can be expressed otherwise.
Thank you

Jonathan MacKerron Feb 5, 2007:
do you know if the document was written by an English speaker, or is it perhaps a translation?
KORNELIA ZWIÓR-HOŁENKO (asker) Feb 5, 2007:
to all - cont. ... and the word DELIVERABLE is not used in any sentence, it just stands there, all alone :-), right under the person's name
KORNELIA ZWIÓR-HOŁENKO (asker) Feb 5, 2007:
to all I'm translating written evidence for the court.
All we know about the person is that he has provided sb with some documentation
Caryl Swift Feb 5, 2007:
'noT even' - sorry about the typo.
Caryl Swift Feb 5, 2007:
Please could you give us some more details. With no context, non even a sentence, it's going to be very difficult to help.
Kim Metzger Feb 5, 2007:
You'll need to give us the entire English sentence in which the term is used.

item delivered

perhaps what is being noted is that at this point in the deposition or whatever was being transcribed, the speaker handed over some document or other item (i.e. the "deliverable") and it is that action that is being noted in the transcript?

*Summons deliverable?*

Could it be that it is the order to appear that can be delivered to the person? That he/she has not fled to another country or whatever?

the person being "delivered" the official court document

I could be wrong, but this is what I read from it. (you could always ask someone at a courthouse -or a legal proffesional-)

Succes!

the person can be handed over

to the court/prison or whatever, is my guess

Another possibility

If your document is about some sort of business activity like a project plan then this could mean that the person is responsible for one of the project's/program's/whatever's "deliverables", i.e. some tangible result of a phase of the project.

the person is ready to deliver oral testimony

Written evidence said that he handed some documents. Now, he could corroborate it with an oral testimony.
