agree  Marcelo González: There's a certain web of associative meaning around a term such as 'languish,' requiring a translation that may be similarly evocative (of death, decay, or a certain withering away that other renderings may be a little less likely to evoke).

olvidar


Explanation:
Entiendo que es de unos casos jurídicos que quedan sin ser considerados bien, así pueden ser olvidados algunos casos importantes. Pienso que de vez en cuando algunos casos problemáticos que no son atendidos bien son de asuntos médicos.
'La desdicha médica junto con la capacidad financiera insuficiente para pagar las facturas jurídicas pueden resultar en el cierre abrupto de un caso.'

Example sentence(s):
  • Some legal cases might be left alone without being considered properly, as some important cases might be forgotten. I believe that occasionally, there might be problematic medical issues which are not attended properly.
  • 'Medical misfortune as well as insufficient financial capacity to pay for legal costs could result in a case being closed abruptly.'
