Motion to transfer civil proceedings denied for failure to establish valid grounds for venue change

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the motion for transfer of venue filed by a commercial banking entity, thereby rejecting the petition and leaving the case under the jurisdiction of the initial trial court. The dispute concerned a procedural request to relocate civil proceedings from a local court to another competent venue, with the hearing date noted as November 9, 2012; the court noted that the Public Prosecutor supported the transfer request, but also observed that an attorney's power of attorney for one representative was missing, resulting in the exclusion of that counsel's conclusions from the official record. In its decision, the Court applied general procedural standards for evaluating motions for transfer, finding the legal requirements for such a transfer were not met, and issued a final, non-appealable order.
