Challenge to venue transfer request: court rejects jurisdictional transfer due to lack of legal basis under procedural norms.

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the request for the transfer of jurisdiction (strămurare) filed by the applicants regarding Case No. 11825/236/2008 of the Giurgiu Tribunal, thereby upholding the jurisdiction of the original court and rendering the decision final without possibility of appeal. The dispute concerned a procedural application to move the trial from the Giurgiu Tribunal to a different court, with the Public Ministry arguing the request was unfounded. The court rejected the petition, affirming that the conditions for altering venue under the applicable code of civil procedure were not met, thus maintaining the status quo of the pending litigation at the Tribunal of Giurgiu, which retained a scheduled hearing date.
