Transfer of civil case jurisdiction between courts of equal rank under venue change procedures

The High Court of Cassation and Justice admitted the petition filed by a bank, ordering the transfer of case No. 2066/271/2013 from the Civil Section of the Oradea Court of First Instance to the Blaj Court of First Instance, while preserving all procedural acts already performed; the decision is final and non-appealable. The dispute involved a motion for venue transfer (strămutare) initiated by the plaintiff, which the Public Ministry supported, citing the necessity to change the competent jurisdiction; the court verified the legality of service, the stamping of the petition, and the scheduling of the subsequent hearing in the destination court. The operative outcome was determined by the application of procedural rules governing the transfer of cases between courts of equal rank, ensuring the integrity of the pending civil proceedings originally filed in Oradea.
