Legislator summary

The Supreme Court of Slovenia ruled that the District Court in Slovenske Konjice has exclusive jurisdiction over the enforcement proceeding. The lower court in Maribor incorrectly declared itself incompetent and transferred the case, while the District Court in Celju argued for jurisdiction based on the debtor's location. The court affirmed jurisdiction because the debtor's habitual residence falls within the Slovenske Konjice judicial district under the Enforcement Act.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

Okrajno sodišče v Mariboru se je s sklepom I 2004/07115 dne 13.7.2004 izreklo za krajevno nepristojno za odločanje v izvršilni zadevi in po pravnomočnosti sklepa odstopilo zadevo Okrajnemu sodišču v Celju, ki je sprožilo spor o pristojnosti. Stališče Okrajnega sodišča v Celju je, da je za odločanje pristojno Okrajno sodišče v Slovenskih Konjicah.

Za odločanje je pristojno Okrajno sodišče v Slovenskih Konjicah.

Na podlagi 100. člena Zakona o izvršbi in zavarovanju je v konkretnem primeru izključno krajevno pristojno izvršilno sodišče po kraju dolžnikovega stalnega prebivališča. S tem v zvezi je pomembno, da spada kraj Loče v sodni okraj Okrajnega sodišča Slovenske Konjice (114. člen Zakona o sodiščih v zvezi z Zakonom o postopku za ustanovitev, združitev oziroma spremembo območja občine ter o območjih občin).

Vrhovno sodišče je odločalo v sporu o pristojnosti na podlagi drugega odstavka 25. člena Zakona o pravdnem postopku.
