Judicial transfer request denied for pending appellate civil case

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by the applicants to transfer (strămutare) civil case no. 14297/62/2011 from the Brașov Court of Appeal, rendering the decision final and non-appealable. The dispute concerned a procedural motion to relocate a civil case due to an alleged violation of the right to a fair trial, which the petitioners sought to address before the supreme instance; the prosecutor opposed the request, and the assistant magistrate noted that the case was scheduled for hearing on June 18, 2013. The court rejected the application after finding that the procedural requirements for the transfer mechanism were not legally met, thereby leaving the case under the jurisdiction of the Brașov Court of Appeal.
