AI generated

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed as inadmissible the referral for a preliminary ruling submitted by the Court of Appeal Iași. The dispute concerned whether the cause for suspension of the limitation period under Article 2.535 of the Civil Code, in reference to Article 2.533(3) and Decision No. 19/2019, could be invoked as a direct defense in the appellate request under Article 478(2) of the Code of Civil Procedure. Consequently, no substantive interpretation of the limitation suspension rules was provided, leaving the procedural referral resolved without altering the status of the underlying conflict of labor matters.
