Legislator summary

AI generated

The defendant's request to transfer jurisdiction to a different court was rejected by the Supreme Court. The applicant argued that her long-term employment at the Maribor court compromised the objective impartiality of the appellate body. The court found no evidence of actual bias since the applicant was previously employed and is now retired, thus upholding the original venue.

Predlog se zavrne.

[JEDRO]

Okoliščina, da je tožnica upokojena delavka prvostopenjskega sodišča, ne predstavlja posega v objektivno nepristranskost drugostopenjskega sodišča.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

Toženka je predlagala "delegacijo pristojnosti Višjega sodišča v Mariboru, ker je tožeča stranka že več let zaposlena na sodišču v Mariboru".

Predlog ni utemeljen.

Po 67. členu Zakona o pravdnem postopku - ZPP, vrhovno sodišče lahko na predlog stranke ali pristojnega sodišča določi drugo stvarno pristojno sodišče za izvedbo postopka, če je očitno, da se bo tako laže opravil postopek, ali če so zato drugi tehtni razlogi. Tožena stranka ni pojasnila, kje natančno je zaposlena tožnica in kakšno je njeno delo. Iz sporočila Višjega sodišča v Mariboru je razvidno, da naj bi bila tožnica nekoč zaposlena na Okrajnem sodišču v Mariboru, kasneje pa upokojena. Zato ne more biti ogrožena objektivna nepristranskost mariborskega višjega sodišča in s tem v zvezi tudi niso podani razlogi za določitev drugega stvarno pristojnega sodišča.
