Transfer of civil jurisdiction between Courts of Appeal due to procedural grounds

The High Court of Cassation and Justice ordered the transfer of a civil case, identified as Case No. 8773/107/2010, from the Alba Iulia Court of Appeal to the Pitești Court of Appeal, while preserving all previously performed procedural acts; this decision, issued by Section I for Civil Matters, is final and non-appealable. The petitioner filed a request to have the jurisdiction for hearing the civil lawsuit relocated due to specific grounds presented to the court, which accepted the transfer to ensure impartiality or procedural integrity. The legal basis for this operative outcome rests on the court's inherent competence to order the transfer of jurisdiction between courts of equal rank when necessary, resulting in the dismissal of the case from the original venue without affecting the validity of prior procedural steps.
