Legislator summary

AI generated

The appellate court granted the appeal, vacated the first-instance judgment, and remanded the case to the Labor and Social Court in Ljubljana. The first instance court incorrectly ruled on a dispute regarding voluntary health insurance, which falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the social court per the Law on Labor and Social Courts. The court found the first instance violated procedural rules by deciding on a matter for which it lacked substantive jurisdiction, necessitating a transfer to the competent authority.

Pritožbi se ugodi, izpodbijana sodba se razveljavi in se zadeva odstopi Delovnemu in socialnemu sodišču v L. kot pristojnemu sodišču.

[JEDRO]

Za spor v zvezi s prostovoljnim zdravstvenim zavarovanjem je pristojno socialno sodišče.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

Sodišče prve stopnje je z izpodbijano sodbo razsodilo, da ostane v veljavi sklep o izvršbi opr. št. I .... z dne 21.12.1995 v točki 1 in 3 sklepa. Odločilo je, da je toženec dolžan povrniti tožeči stranki pravdne stroške.

Proti sodbi se iz vseh pritožbenih razlogov pritožuje tožena stranka.

Pritožba je utemeljena.

V obravnavani zadevi gre za spor v zvezi s prostovoljnim zdravstvenim zavarovanjem. Po določbi 2. točke 5. člena Zakona o delovnih in socialnih sodiščih (Uradni list RS št. 19-780/94) je za odločanje pristojno socialno sodišče, glede na določbo 8. člena istega zakona pa je to Delovno in socialno sodišče v Ljubljani.

Ko je sodišče prve stopnje o stvari odločalo, je tako storilo bistveno kršitev določb postopka po členu 354/2 točka 4 Zakona o pravdnem postopku. Odločilo je namreč o tožbenem zahtevku, za katerega je stvarno pristojno drugo sodišče. Po določbi člena 369/1 Zakona o pravdnem postopku v zvezi s členom 17/1 istega zakona ter glede na zgoraj povedano je bilo torej treba odločiti, da je za odločanje v tej zadevi pristojno Delovno in socialno sodišče v Ljubljani.
