Inadmissibility of reference for preliminary ruling on salary calculation for public employees following statutory transformation of contractual posts
Romania (RO)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed as inadmissible a reference for a preliminary ruling submitted by the Alba County Court, meaning the lower court must resolve the case without binding national guidance from the supreme judicial body. The dispute concerned the public finance sector, specifically challenging the method for reporting and establishing the salary levels effective January 1, 2020, for employees of the Authority for the Management of State Assets following the transformation of contractual positions into public functions. The legal basis for the admissibility rejection is grounded in Article 521(3) of the Code of Civil Procedure, which governs the conditions for a mandatory court to request the resolution of a legal issue by the Plenary for the Resolution of Questions of Law, while the substantive issue relates to Annex VIII of Law No. 153/2017 on the salary of personnel paid from public funds, as amended, in conjunction with Articles 407 and 612(1) of the Administrative Code.
