AI generated

The Supreme Court of Slovenia rejected the applicant's request for permission to file a revision against a lower court's decision. The applicant suffered property and non-property damage after losing control of their vehicle by driving through a flooded pothole, while the lower court initially assigned 30% liability to the applicant for failing to avoid the hazard. The Supreme Court determined that the revision request did not meet the statutory criteria for importance regarding legal certainty or uniform application of law, as the lower courts' assessment of the applicant's conduct was consistent with established traffic safety standards.

[JEDRO]

Predlog se zavrne.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

1. Tožeča stranka je pri vožnji motornega vozila zapeljala skozi lužo na cestišču, ki pa je dejansko bila luknja, zalita z deževno vodo. Tožeča stranka je izgubila nadzor nad motornim vozilom. Zaradi padca ji je nastala premoženjska in nepremoženjska škoda.

2. Sodišče prve stopnje je izdalo vmesno sodbo in razsodilo, da je oškodovanec soodgovoren za nastalo škodo v višini 30%.

3. Pritožbeno sodišče je zavrnilo pritožbo tožeče stranke. Navedlo je, da bi se tožeča stranka lahko izognila vožnji skozi lužo in dodalo, da gre za povsem običajno ravnanje v prometu.

4. Zoper takšno sodbo vlaga predlog za dopustitev revizije tožeča stranka. Dopustitev revizije predlaga glede naslednjih vprašanj:

- Ali sta sodišče I. stopnje in sodišče II. stopnje zmotno uporabili materialno pravo glede očitane soodgovornosti tožniku oz. ali sta z očitkom soodgovornosti tožniku prekoračili okvir povprečne skrbnosti človeka oz. udeleženca v prometu;

- Ali je sodišče II. stopnje storilo kršitev iz 14. točke I. odst. 339. čl. ZPP, ko v sodbi navaja, da tožena stranka ni podala trditev, da tožnik ni mogel ravnati, tako kot mu očitata sodišči, zaradi drugih vozil.

5. Pomembnost vprašanj tožeča stranka utemeljuje z zagotovitvijo pravne varnosti, enotne uporabe prava ter neenotne sodne prakse višjih sodišč.

6. Predlog ni utemeljen.

7. Vrhovno sodišče dopusti revizijo, če je od njegove odločitve mogoče pričakovati odločitev o pravnem vprašanju, pomembnem za zagotovitev pravne varnosti, enotne uporabe prava ali za razvoj prava prek sodne prakse (prvi odstavek 367.a člena Zakona o pravdnem postopku – ZPP). Vrhovno sodišče je predlog za dopustitev revizije soočilo s sodbama nižjih sodišč in ugotovilo, da v konkretni zadevi predlog tem merilom ne ustreza. Zato je vrhovno sodišče predlog zavrnilo (drugi odstavek 367.c člena ZPP).

8. Vrhovno sodišče je odločalo v senatu, ki je naveden v uvodu odločbe. Odločitev je sprejelo soglasno (sedmi odstavek 324. člena ZPP).
