Usage Note

Remitido is the past participle of remitir (to send, to refer, to remit) used as an adjective. In journalism and administrative Spanish, un remitido (as a noun) is a paid press notice or letter to the editor submitted by an outside party. In legal and bureaucratic contexts, remitido al juzgado means referred to the court. Learners should note that remitir also means to subside (as a fever), so context is key.

Examples

"El caso fue remitido al tribunal superior."

Natural Translation
