Denial of case transfer to another court despite scheduled trial date

The High Court of Cassation and Justice (Civil Section I) dismissed the application for the transfer of jurisdiction, thereby upholding the original court's authority to hear the case; the applicant, who sought to move Case No. 11656/196/2011 from the Brăila Court, did not prevail against the non-appearing defendants, including municipal authorities and private parties. The dispute concerned a procedural request to shift the civil proceedings due to potential bias or irregularities, with the specific material fact that the original case was already scheduled for judgment on November 28, 2012. The decisive legal basis was the Court’s independent review of the statutory requirements for jurisdictional transfer under Romanian civil procedure law, where the Public Prosecutor advocated for dismissal and the Court determined that the necessary conditions for relocating the trial were not met, rendering the decision final and non-appealable.
