Hebrew term

על פי הדין וההלכה

Hebrew to English Law/Patents Law (general)
While I'm OK with "din", where does "halacha" come into this term?
A sample sentence (out of many in this legal case):

"הצעתו של הנתבע אינה עומדת בתנאים מהותיים רבים כפי שנקבעו במכרז, ועל פי הדין וההלכה דינה היה להיפסל"

Thanks!

הלכה "Jewish Law" perhaps?

in accordance with statutory and case law

"הלכה" (in both the traditional religious and the modern secular sense) refers to accepted practice.

Thanks, David, this seems to be the best option.

in accordance with both Jewish and secular law

The lawyer here is backing up his words. He is saying: Not only is this person doing something wrong according to the secular law by which this court abides, but even according to Mishpat Ivri, the rich tradition of Jewish law going back hundreds of years.

disagree Ron Armon : Not in this context, IMHO. That's why the asker was puzzled about the word הלכה to begin with. It doesn't fit in the legal context of the document, and of the specific phrase (conditions of a tender).

court ruling

אני מתייחס למונח הלכה:
הלכה כאן משמעותה הלכה פסוקה, דהיינו פסיקת בתי המשפט ולא ההלכה במובן המשפט העברי.
לכן התרגום הוא
court ruling
או דומה לו

אפשר לתרגם הלכה פסוקה גם כ
case law
