agree  Toni Castano: Sí, señora. Fíjate en lo que le comento a Lisa sobre "remedies", que suele equvaler a "recursos judiciales" (apelación, etc.).

challenge / challenging the case
oponerse / hacer oposición - oponiéndose - al expediente > a la promoción del juicio


Explanation:
oponer can, of course, be used transitively, such as 'una excepción' set up or enter a defenc/se rather than 'file an exception' in pidgin English.

As far as I can see, the case is an expediente > at the application stage and not up-and-running as yet.

Alt. to consider: recurrir contra vs. a...

Example sentence(s):
  • Escrito de parte personada no oponiéndose a la intervención de un tercero
  • IATE: en act not open to challenge by the beneficiary COM es acto no recurrible por el beneficiario

"The defendant (the respondent) contests (or challenges) the action (the case or the petition) given that the applicant (the complainant or the plaintiff) did not use all the available local resources firstly."

'Resources are something resorted to for support, an ingenuity, a means of achieving something. They can be sources of economic wealth, stock or funds which can be drawn.'
'Remedies are the means of solving a problem, or cures for ailments.'

"Recursos son algo recurrido por el apoyo, una ingenuidad, los modos de lograr algo. Pueden ser fuentes de riqueza económica, o fondos que pueden ser retirados.'
'Remedios son los medios de resolver un problema, o pueden ser la cura de una dolencia o enfermedad.'

  • "The defendant is challenging the case on the grounds of the Applicant's non-exhaustion of domestic remedies."

disagree  Toni Castano: Otra traducción que carece totalmente de sentido en español. Los casos no se "desafían", "remedies" se refiere a "recursos jurídicos" (apelación, etc.), nada que ver con "recursos domésticos". Y "applicant" no significa aquí "aspirante", sino solicitante.

Reference: EXHAUSTION OF DOMESTIC REMEDIES

Reference information:
En este enlace se explica el significado de la expresión "exhaustion of domestic remedies", que se utiliza sobre todo en el derecho internacional:

https://ijrcenter.org/exhaustion-of-domestic-remedies/
EXHAUSTION OF DOMESTIC REMEDIES
The term “exhaustion of domestic remedies” refers to the general requirement that victims first use the judicial or administrative complaint procedures available under national law before bringing a complaint to the international level. This requirement give the country allegedly responsible for a human rights violation the opportunity to provide reparation on its own. It is a prerequisite to submitting a complaint to most supranational human rights bodies, meaning those bodies will reject a complaint if the complainant cannot show that he or she pursued domestic remedies to their final conclusion.
