The High Court of Cassation and Justice (Înalta Curte de Casaţie şi Justiţie) dismissed as inadmissible the referral from the Alba Tribunal (Secţia I civilă) seeking a preliminary ruling on whether the effects of its prior Decision No. 4 of 11 March 2024 (published in the Official Gazette on 24 April 2024), concerning the application of the framework law on public-sector salaries (Law No. 153/2017), should extend to proceedings and enforcement actions commenced before that publication date. The referral was made in a pending civil case, and the Court ruled that the question did not meet the statutory admissibility requirements for a preliminary ruling under Article 521(3) of the Romanian Code of Civil Procedure; consequently, the prior decision remains in force and no new interpretation was issued.
