But since the synonyms for conjectural are speculative/ suppositional/ theoretical/ hypothetical/ putative/ notional,

And you mentioned before it is for something that you dont know if it even exists or not, suggests that conjectural isn't a proper adjective on the context then? :/

because the judge "speculated" that the document exists...

its ruling went this way...

"declaring the nullity of the certificate of title, if there is any."

so conjectural might be the most proper term.

So you’re just agreeing with what the judge has already decided?

Nope. That's why I'm saying the title is merely conjectural. Its existence was speculated by the judge even though the parties did not present it in evidence.
