It looks like it could stand for "utvidende tolkning": "tolkning av en bestemmelse slike at man gir den et videre virdeområde enn en naturlig språklig forståelse of teksten isolert sett tilsier...." (Gisle's Jusleksikon).

I have spoken with a colleague and he confirms that it is 'Committee'. Apparently, in the Supreme Court there is a committee that makes decisions on cases. But, do you really need to translate this abbreviation?

Note from asker:
I know the question was asked before, but the context seems a bit different. That's why I asked.
Although it is correct that Utv. is an abbreviation for Utvalg, it could also be an abbreviation for something else. In this case, Brigid's suggestion makes more sense to me. What do you think?
Something went wrong...
