Motion to transfer case denied for lacking legal grounds

The High Court of Cassation and Justice (Section I Civil) rejected the applicants’ motion to transfer (strămutare) the trial of civil case file no. 8297/63/2012 pending before the Dolj Tribunal, with no further appeal available; this ruling is final. The applicants had sought the transfer of the case based on procedural grounds, and the court, after verifying that the case was scheduled for hearing on 9 October 2012 and hearing the Public Ministry’s opposition, found no legal basis to grant the request. The decision rests on the court’s assessment of the statutory conditions for case transfer under Romanian civil procedure, concluding that the applicants failed to demonstrate grounds justifying removal of the case from the original court.
