An excellent turn of phrase

While continuing my studies in advanced Spanish Law (needs must where the Devil drives) I came across the usual salutation used in a recurso alzada or other exportation to a higher Authority (with a capital A):

Por ser de Justicia que pido en Almería para Sevilla

Lit: So that Justice may be served in Almería by Seville.

I like that phrase. I must remember to use it more often in conversation.
