Italian term or phrase: ....d'indagine svolta d'iniziativa....
Oggetto: Annotazione inerente l'attivita d'indagine svolta d'iniziativa sulle piste della ski area......

Basically, two skiers collided and it resulted in a legal action. I am not sure of the sense behind 'iniziativa' - does it imply that an investigation/inquiry turned into a lawsuit???
Thanks for any clarification on the matter!

Explanation:
A distinction needs to be made....police investigations may be either ex offico, or else after a complaint of an injured party...my impression is that the the investigations were of the police's own initative (hence my suggestion) but Amy needs to confirm this...

Explanation:
sembrerebbe che manchi qualcosa.....su iniziativa di chi? bisogna dire chi è che ha predisposto l'indagine (che è poi una perizia). ho chiesto ad un avvocato qui in ufficio e mi ha detto che molto probabilmente hanno omesso "d'ufficio" (d'indagine svolta d'iniziativa d'ufficio)....il tribunale avrà chiesto un CTU, cioè una perizia e quindi si è proceduto con la causa.
in bocca al lupo

Explanation:
Eurodicautum comes up with "diritto d'iniziativa" as "right to initiate legislation" so maybe this is what's meant here?
Not sure, though.
