This appears in a petition for divorce. I'm pretty sure it doesn't mean he is on leave from work or unemployed because a few paragraphs later there is a description of his current job and how much he gets paid. And, in describing the other party, no mention is made of her profession...so what does it mean? Could it be related to his place of residence?? Anybody know?

: I surmise it is actually rellano and then "floor" or maybe "landing" are quite all right.//Even better, "rellano". Just checked with Collins and this is it.

Comment: "thanks! I've selected this answer because it's clearly correct in some contexts, but I'm still not convinced in this case - you couldn't tell from all the x-ing out of info I did, but the original said (I've changed the names here to protect the innocent :))

So, he lives on an unspecified floor on a road ?? (the building seems to have no number). Anyway - I've asked the client and we'll see what she says...thanks again!"
