Legislator summary

The High Court of Cassation and Justice declined jurisdiction, referring the case to the Brașov County Court as the competent appellate instance, with no further appeal available against this procedural decision. The dispute involved a civil action for the eviction of multiple defendants from a residential property in Brașov, where the first-instance court had granted the plaintiff's request against most defendants but dismissed it against one specific defendant who subsequently filed an objection. The decisive legal basis was the recharacterization of the defendant's "appeal" (recurs) into a standard "appeal" (apel) under Article 1041(5) of the New Code of Civil Procedure, which restricts challenges to first-instance eviction orders to appeals only; consequently, pursuant to Articles 466, 95(2), and 96(2) of the same code, the High Court lacked material competence to hear the matter, which falls exclusively within the purview of the hierarchically superior court, i.e., the County Court.

Constată următoarele:

Prin cererea înregistrată pe rolul Judecătoriei Brașov la data de 17 mai 2013 reclamanta SC P.V. SRL prin reprezentant legal, a solicitat instanței evacuarea pârâților B.D., B.M., B.N., C.V., I.D., L.M., Ș.M., S.G. din imobilul situat în Brașov, str.E., jud. Brașov.

Prin sentința civilă nr. 10234 din data de 21 iunie 2013, Judecătoria Brașov a anulat cererea în contradictoriu cu pârâtul B.N. și a admis cererea în contradictoriu cu ceilalți pârâți.

Împotriva sentinței civile nr. 10234 din data de 21 iunie 2013 pronunțată de Judecătoria Brașov, pârâtul C.D. a formulat prezentul recurs.

Înalta Curte, în urma dezbaterilor din ședința publică, a recalificat cererea de recurs a pârâtului C.D. ca cerere de apel.

Potrivit dispozițiilor art. 1041 alin. (5) din Noul C. proc. civ., hotărârea de evacuare pronunțată în primă instanță poate fi atacată numai cu apel în termen de 5 zile de la pronunțare, dacă s-a dat cu citarea părților sau de la comunicare, când s-a dat fără citarea lor.

De asemenea, potrivit dispozițiilor art. 466 din Noul C. proc. civ., apelul este de competența instanței ierarhic superioare celei care a pronunțat hotărârea apelată, astfel cum rezultă din dispozițiile generale în materie de competență materială (art. 95 pct. 2 și art. 96 pct. 2 din Noul C. proc. civ.).

În raport de dispozițiile procedurale sus menționate, instanța constată că nu este competentă material în soluționarea cererii formulate de pârât, motiv pentru care, va declina competența de soluționare în favoarea Tribunalului Brașov.

PENTRU ACESTE MOTIVE

ÎN NUMELE LEGII

Pronunțată în ședință publică, astăzi 17 septembrie 2013.
