I encountered this sentence in a judgment ordering someone to repay some money:
Hinzu kommt der Verzugszins, berechnet zu 5% ab mittlerem Verfall, somit ab dem xxxx. (date)
I'm not sure about "ab mittlerem Verfall." Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew

the date halfway between the first and last payment due dates
A bit of a mouthful, but this is the most concise way I can find to explain it.
"Werden gleichbleibende Raten (Ratenzahlung, Mietzinse usw.) in regelmässigen Abständen geschuldet, beispielsweise jeweils auf den 1. eines jeden Monats, ist der mittlere Verfalltag genau zwischen dem ersten und dem letzten Fälligkeitstermin."
As the two examples in my reference show, this may or may not be a payment due date.

: This is on the right lines, but not specific enough.

I think mid-term' as a concept is fairly specific for most people; not at the beginning or end of a period, but in the middle, half way from/to previous/next payments.
