Change of venue rejected for lack of statutory grounds in civil dispute

The High Court of Cassation and Justice (Civil Section I) rejected the petitioner's request to transfer the civil case (File No. 4002/231/2011 of the Focșani Court) to another court, ruling against the petitioner and in favor of the respondent; the decision is final and not subject to appeal. The dispute arose from a request for case transfer based on alleged grounds of impartiality or local circumstances, with the petitioner appearing in person and the respondent absent, while the prosecutor argued for rejection. Decisive legal basis: the court found no statutory grounds for transfer under the applicable procedural rules (Code of Civil Procedure provisions on case transfer), as the petitioner's arguments did not meet the threshold required to justify removal from the original court's jurisdiction, and the decision was made in a council chamber with no appeal available.
