Transfer of jurisdiction (strămutare) request for civil case with scheduled hearing pending

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition for the transfer of jurisdiction, resulting in a final, non-appealable order that kept the case within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal of Iași. The dispute concerned a procedural motion filed by a party to remove a civil case (File No. 9988/99/2006) from its current venue, likely on grounds of judicial impartiality or conflict of interest, after the opposing party and the prosecutor argued against the transfer. The Court rejected the request without providing a detailed substantive rationale in the text, relying on the procedural determination that the transfer was not justified, thereby upholding the original jurisdictional assignment.
