Civil venue change dismissed as moot following prior final judgment

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition for a change of venue filed by the applicant, leaving the underlying civil proceedings to be resolved by the original court (Novaci District Court), as the Public Prosecutor argued the request had become moot following the resolution of the case file on May 28, 2012. The dispute involved a procedural application to transfer jurisdiction for a civil case based on allegations that required assessment of local neutrality or integrity, where the administrative record indicated the substantive case had already been decided, thereby eliminating the necessity for a venue change. The decisive legal basis was the procedural doctrine that a change of venue petition is dismissed as remaining without object (*rămasă fără obiect*) when the underlying proceedings have already been concluded, rendering the preventive measure unnecessary, resulting in a final, unappealable decision.
