A legal term referring to facts or arguments submitted or alleged in a court case; pleas or claims presented as evidence.
From Latin 'allegata,' plural of 'allegatum' (things alleged), from 'allegare' (to allege). Used in medieval and modern legal terminology in English and Romance languages.
Lawyers use this term when listing all the claims and evidence they're presenting—it's basically 'here's everything we're saying the other side did!'
