ultra et infra petita

"Ultra petita" and "infra petita" are two separate expressions, whose meaning is explained at http://www.vovan-associes.com/pekin/pekin.asp?Id_Arbo=173#to...

In the sentence you wrote, however, they appear together, as in:
"This Panel holds that it cannot act nec ultra petita nec infra petita, that is, that it cannot issue a decision that would be either less than requested, nor more than requested by the parties"
(http://www.arb-forum.com/domains/decisions/170616.htm)

Both expressions are normally used untranslated in ITalian, English and French.
