POC

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
I am translating a large Excel file documenting all the open cases for an entity in Puerto Rico.

"POC" is used frequently:

EL ABOGADO, PRESENTÓ EN EL MISMO POC, LA RECLAMACIÓN DE DOS CLIENTES INDEPENDIENTES CUYOS CASOS NO ESTAN RELACIONADOS.
Según el POC hay Sentencia dictada el 15 de mayo de 2017.
POC tiene reclamación de $50,000.00.
EL POC QUE SE ACOMPAÑA EN ESTE LINK NO ES EL CORRECTO.
repetido con el de abajo el POC que se acompaña en este renglón no corresponde a este caso
EN EL POC TIENE EL NUMERO CIVIL INCORRECTO
El POC tiene el número del caso estatal incorrecto, debe leer XXX

I don't think you should be embarrassed. It took me a while to work out, and it may not be correct.
Alan Lambson (asker) Dec 5, 2019:
Phil Goddard: Yes, that would make perfect sense in the contexts that I see here. I'm a bit embarrassed I didn't see it! Many thanks. I'll let it "cool" for a while before using it.
philgoddard Dec 5, 2019:
In that case I think there's a strong chance it's "proof of claim".
Alan Lambson (asker) Dec 5, 2019:

sorry, ignore that!
Alan Lambson (asker) Dec 5, 2019:
Most of the cases have to do with stays of proceedings on open cases due to the bankruptcy of the Puerto Rican government.

Is this to do with insolvency?
