French term

attribution judiciaire

French to English Law/Patents Law (general) Interlocutory hearing
Société X a fait délivrer à l'encontre de Y une sommation de payer la créance, l'informant qu'à défaut de paiement de celle-ci, à l'expiration du délai de 8 jours, elle serait en droit d'obtenir l'attribution judiciaire des Actions.

Would something like:
... it would be entitled to claim the legal transfer of the Shares.

Company X is the Collateral Agent of the Banking Syndicate and Company Y signed a Pledge Agreement over a financial instruments account in favour of the Lending Banks in which practically all of the shares of the company are registered.

court order

just an idea, no time to investigate properly, sorry. I think you have the right idea.
"entitled to apply for a court order to transfer the shares"
entitled to be legally awarded the shares/awarded the shares by the court (this conveys the more definite feel of "obtenir")

I'm not sure that there is a solution in natural-sounding English that retains the same parts of speech, i.e. some kind of noun for "awarding" plus some kind of adjective for "legal", so you might need to be a bit imaginative :-)

neutral Attorney DC Bar : Don't both of these examples refer to government funding for the courts, which is not our situation here?

would be entitled to receive the shares by/on order of the court

Hello,

I think that Charlie is on the right track, but I'd word it this way.

attribution = granting
judiciaire = by the court

This company would be entitled to receive the shares by/on order of the court.

I hope this helps.
