Transfer of civil case jurisdiction: High Court denies petition to change venue despite scheduled hearing date

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by the applicants for the transfer of jurisdiction regarding Case No. 10063/212/2011 of the Constanța Court of Appeal, with the public prosecutor’s office recommending rejection; the decision is final and not subject to appeal. The dispute concerned a procedural motion to relocate the hearing date, during which the assistant magistrate noted that the next scheduled hearing in the underlying civil case was set for April 9, 2013, according to the national case management system (ECRIS). The court relied on the principle of non-appealability of procedural orders issued in council chamber sessions to finality, resulting in the maintenance of the original jurisdiction and schedule.
