Supreme Court dismisses appeal permission request due to missing new power of attorney after final judgment. The court rejected the request because the attached power of attorney was dated before the final judgment was served, failing to meet the statutory requirement for a new authorization under Article 95(2) of the Civil Procedure Act. Consequently, the extraordinary legal remedy was inadmissible as it lacked the necessary connection to the specific final decision. The court applied Article 98(5) in conjunction with Article 377 of the Civil Procedure Act to formally reject the proposal. This case establishes that a new power of attorney must be executed after the final judgment is served to validly request an appeal. The ruling emphasizes strict adherence to procedural formalities for extraordinary remedies. Lawyers must ensure proper documentation timing when seeking appellate review. The decision clarifies the temporal requirements for authorizing extraordinary legal actions. This precedent guides future filings regarding appeal permissions in Slovenian civil courts.

Pravnomočna sodba Višjega sodišča v Ljubljani III Cp 2506/2016 z dne 9. 11. 2016 je bila vročena tožniku dne 1. 12. 2016. Iz pooblastila, ki je bilo priloženo predlogu za dopustitev revizije, je razvidno, da je bilo sestavljeno dne 13. 11. 2015 in zato ne predstavlja novega pooblastila v smislu drugega odstavka 95. člena ZPP.
[OBRAZLOŽITEV]
1. Sodišče druge stopnje je delno ugodilo pritožbama tožnika in toženke proti sodbi sodišča prve stopnje, in sicer tako, da je delno zvišalo znesek prisojene odškodnine (12.133,74 EUR), delno pa je spremenilo tudi izrek o pravdnih stroških.
2. Odvetnik dr. J. T. je za tožečo stranko vložil predlog za dopustitev revizije zoper sodbo pritožbenega sodišča.
3. Predlog ni dovoljen.
4. Predlog za dopustitev revizije predstavlja izredno pravno sredstvo. Za vložitev izrednih pravnih sredstev pa mora odvetnik priložiti novo pooblastilo (drugi odstavek 95. člena Zakona o pravdnem postopku, v nadaljevanju ZPP). Vložitev izrednega pravnega sredstva zoper pravnomočno sodno odločbo mora biti namreč povezana s posebnim preudarkom stranke in njenega odvetnika, kar se izraža tudi tako, da stranka podpiše novo pooblastilo, potem ko je bila seznanjena z vsebino pravnomočne odločbe, zoper katero naj bi bilo vloženo izredno pravno sredstvo.
5. Pravnomočna sodba Višjega sodišča v Ljubljani III Cp 2506/2016 z dne 9. 11. 2016 je bila vročena tožniku dne 1. 12. 2016. Iz pooblastila, ki je bilo priloženo predlogu za dopustitev revizije, je razvidno, da je bilo sestavljeno dne 13. 11. 2015 in zato ne predstavlja novega pooblastila v smislu drugega odstavka 95. člena ZPP. Revizijsko sodišče je zato zavrglo predlog na podlagi petega odstavka 98. člena v zvezi s 377. členom ZPP.
