Civil procedure transfer jurisdiction request dismissed for insufficient legitimate suspicion grounds

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the application for the transfer of jurisdiction (*strămutare*), ruling in favor of the opposing party and the Public Ministry, with no further appeal possible. The dispute concerned a procedural request to move a civil case pending at the Tribunal of Olt, filed by a representative alleging reasons for legitimate suspicion regarding the integrity of the local judges; the court rejected this transfer request, thereby leaving the original tribunal as the competent venue for the underlying civil proceedings. The decisive legal basis was the court's determination that the claimed grounds for legitimate suspicion were insufficient to warrant a change of venue under the applicable procedural norms governing judicial jurisdiction and recusation.
