AI generated

The Supreme Court of Cassation and Justice admitted a preliminary ruling request and established that procedural acts transmitted via fax or email after the daily cutoff time of the court on the final day of a day-counted procedural term are deemed timely filed. This interpretation resolved a legal issue concerning the validity of late-dated electronic submissions within civil proceedings, where the submitting party effectively prevailed by having its documents recognized as deposited within the statutory deadline. The decisive legal basis comprises Article 182 and Article 183(1) and (3) of the Code of Civil Procedure, as amended by Law No. 310/2018, which govern the calculation of procedural terms and the acceptance of procedural acts.
