Jurisdictional transfer of civil proceedings denied due to imminent hearing schedule

The Supreme Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by four applicants seeking the transfer of jurisdiction (strămutare) for a civil case pending before the Maramureș Court of Appeal. The dispute concerned the procedural request to remove the trial from its assigned court, with the prosecutor also recommending the dismissal of the application. The Court rejected the request, leaving the original court with jurisdiction over the proceedings; the decision is final and not subject to appeal. The dismissal was based on the finding that the procedural requirements for transferring jurisdiction were not met, specifically noting that the case had an imminent hearing date on May 2, 2012, according to the court's digital docketing schedule.
