Hello there my translator pals.
I haven't asked anything for ages, but I'm really stumped by how to put this phrase into elegant English from the following text (obviously part of a contract):
Au cas ou l'une des parties s'abstiendrait a' un moment quelconque, d'exiger l'exécution par l'autre partie de l'une quelconque des dispositions de la présente convention, son droit de le faire a' tout moment par la suite n'en subsisterait pas moins intégralement
Can anyone offer any help?

Ah: along the same lines as Karen, who was clearly adding her reply at the same time, though changing it around a little bit using 'entitled'.

would not be in any way mitigated on account thereof
Hello,
They mean that the right to do so would not be mitigated in any way on account thereof (legalese LOL).

or "would not be mitigated in any way on account thereof"
The "en" in "n'en subsisterait pas" = on account thereof
