My comment:

Is the idea: stop a cheque payment or is it the owner's veto to the building of an extension to the house (for instance)?

I think it's "constructeur" in the sense of "manufacturer" here. The field is stated as tech/engineering...

My comment:

This is clearly a text that has been (poorly) translated from English into French ("était résultant de" is not French; "pertes cumulatives continues" is very odd too (word-for-word for "continuing cumulative losses"); same goes for "particulièrement opposition de propriétaire". Given that this is the case, the likelihood that the translation is simply "proprietor's opposition" is quite high.

Does this text have something to do with patent procedures?

If so, the "propriétaire" might be the proprietor of the patent: Wikipedia: An opposition proceeding is an administrative process available under the patent and trademark law of many jurisdictions which allows third parties to formally dispute the validity of a pending patent application ("pre-grant opposition"), of a granted patent ("post-grant opposition") or of a trademark.
