Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court of Slovenia rejected the applicant's request to delegate jurisdiction to another court. The applicant argued procedural misconduct and alleged nepotism involving a former court president, but the court found no objective doubt regarding impartiality. The court ruled that delegation is an exceptional measure requiring strict adherence to Article 67 of the Code of Civil Procedure, where mere dissatisfaction with proceedings does not constitute a valid ground.

Predlog se zavrne.

[JEDRO]

Delegacija je izjemen ukrep in so zato določbe 67. člena ZPP predmet restriktivne razlage.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

1. Nasprotna udeleženka je v postopku že tretjič predlagala določitev drugega stvarno pristojnega sodišča. V predlogu izraža nezadovoljstvo z načinom vodenja sodnega postopka pri Okrajnem sodišču v A., opozarja pa tudi, da so predlagatelji v sorodu z B. B., ki je bila do leta 2006 predsednica Okrajnega sodišča v A., zaradi česar naj bi imel njen mož C. B., ki zastopa predlagatelje pri nekaterih postopkih, določeno prednost pri Okrajnem sodišču v A..

2. Predlog ni utemeljen.

3. Vrhovno sodišče lahko na predlog stranke določi drugo stvarno pristojno sodišče, da postopa v zadevi, če je očitno, da se bo tako laže opravil postopek, ali če so za to drugi tehtni razlogi (67. člen Zakona o pravdnem postopku - ZPP). Vrhovno sodišče se je že večkrat izreklo o tem, da strankino nezadovoljstvo s potekom sodnega postopka pri določenem sodišču ne more predstavljati tehtnega razloga za delegacijo (glej npr. sklep I R 89/2001 z dne 31.1.2002, sklep I R 49/2003 z dne 10.7.2003 in sklep R 26/99 z dne 12.5.1999). Prav tako predlagateljičini argumenti o sorodstveni zvezi nekdanje predsednice Okrajnega sodišča v A. in predlagateljev nepravdnega postopka ne povzročajo resnega dvoma v objektivno nepristranskost pristojnega sodišča. Delegacija je namreč izjemen ukrep in so zato določbe 67. člena ZPP predmet restriktivne razlage.
