Spanish term or phrase: comité de expedientes contradictorios
In a CV, one of the jobs listed is "Secretario del Comité de Expedientes Contradictorios".

In the words of Rebecca Jowers (http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/law_general/116...

"The 'expediente contradictorio' phase in adminstrative proceedings allows/invites the 'accused' to file a statement of defense giving his view of the events."

The context is employment law:

What I don't know is what one of these committees is called; I suspect "Defense Committee" would be all too vague a term.
