Petition for transfer of jurisdiction: statutory admissibility requirements and procedural conditions for changing the assigned court

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by the applicant for the transfer of jurisdiction, resulting in the rejection of the request and the continuation of proceedings at the Brăila Court of Appeal without appeal. The dispute concerned a procedural motion for the transfer of a case pending before the Brăila Court of Appeal, where the applicant alleged grounds necessitating a change in jurisdiction, while the Public Prosecutor’s Office concluded that the petition should be rejected. The court determined that the procedural requirements for the transfer were not met, specifically noting that the petition was legally stamped and the subject file had a hearing scheduled for June 26, 2013, leading to the definitive refusal of the transfer of jurisdiction.
