The High Court of Cassation and Justice (Civil Section I) declined its own jurisdiction and referred the applicants' request for the transfer (strămutare) of Case No. x/193/2017 pending before the Botoșani District Court, based on claims of legitimate suspicion, to the Suceava Court of Appeal. No decision on the merits was made; the transfer request remains pending before the Suceava Court of Appeal as the competent forum. The dispute concerned a procedural motion under Art. 142(1) of the Romanian Code of Civil Procedure, which assigns jurisdiction over transfer requests based on legitimate suspicion to the court of appeal within whose circuit the lower court (here, a district court or tribunal) is located. Applying Art. 131 C. proc. civ. on jurisdiction, the High Court ruled that the Suceava Court of Appeal, not the High Court, was the materially competent court to hear the request, and ordered the case file transferred accordingly, with no appeal available.

Decizia nr. 758/2017

Asupra cauzei de față, constată următoarele:

Prin cererea înregistrată pe rolul Înaltei Curți de Casație și Justiție, secția I civilă, la data de 22 martie 2017, petenții A. și B. au solicitat strămutarea Dosarului nr. x/193/2017 al Judecătoriei Botoșani, pentru motive de bănuială legitimă.

Potrivit dispozițiilor art. 142 alin. (1) C. proc. civ., cererea de strămutare întemeiată pe motive de bănuială legitimă este de competența curții de apel, dacă instanța de la care se cere strămutarea este o judecătorie sau un tribunal din circumscripția acesteia.

Pentru aceste considerente, în aplicarea dispozițiilor art. 131 C. proc. civ., raportat la prevederile art. 142 alin. (1) C. proc. civ., se constată că, în speță, instanța competentă material a soluționa cererea de strămutare este Curtea de Apel Suceava, instanță în favoarea căreia urmează a se dispune declinarea competenței.
