Za odločanje v tej zadevi se določi Okrajno sodišče v R..

[JEDRO]

Okoliščina, da je upnica zaposlena pri Okrajnem sodišču na J., pomeni tehten razlog za prenos pristojnosti na drugo sodišče.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

Upnica je vložila proti dolžniku predlog za izvršbo pri Okrajnem sodišču na J. Postopek teče pod opr. št. In ../98.

Predstojnica Okrajnega sodišča na J. predlaga Vrhovnemu sodišču Republike Slovenije, da na podlagi 68.čl. Zakona o pravdnem postopku določi drugo stvarno pristojno sodišče za odločanje v tej zadevi. Upnica je namreč več kot deset let strojepiska pri sodišču na J. Zato bi dolžnik lahko dvomil o nepristranosti tega sodišča.

Predlog je utemeljen.

Po določbi 68.čl. Zakona o pravdnem postopku v zvezi s 6. točko 106. čl. Zakona o sodiščih lahko Vrhovno sodišče Republike Slovenije na predlog stranke ali pristojnega sodišča določi, da postopa v posamezni zadevi drugo stvarno pristojno sodišče, če je očitno, da se bo tako laže opravil postopek ali če so za to drugi tehtni razlogi.

Okoliščina, da je upnica zaposlena pri Okrajnem sodišču na J., pomeni tehten razlog za prenos pristojnosti na drugo sodišče. S tem se pri strankah v postopku prepreči dvom v nepristranost sodišča in v zvezi s tem motnje v postopku zaradi izločevanja sodnikov. Zato je Vrhovno sodišče ugodilo predlogu in odločilo, da bo postopek opravilo Okrajno sodišče v R. kot krajevno najbližje sodišče.
