Transfer of civil case between appellate courts rejected for failure to fulfill legal service requirements

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by the applicants to transfer the underlying civil case from the Bucharest Court of Appeal, effectively leaving the original jurisdiction in force and rendering the decision final without further appeal. The dispute concerned a procedural motion to change the competent court for a specific civil case currently pending before the Bucharest Court of Appeal, where the applicants argued for the transfer while the prosecutor opposed the request. The decisive legal basis for the dismissal was the court's determination that the statutory legal service procedure had not been properly fulfilled by the petitioners, a requirement necessary to initiate or continue such a procedural transfer request.
