Request to transfer civil case pending at first instance

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the motion to transfer case file No. 595/231/2012 from the Focșani Court to another jurisdiction, ruling that the decision is final and non-appealable. The dispute centered on a procedural request filed by a party to the underlying civil case, arguing for a change of venue; the Public Prosecutor opposed the transfer, and the assisting magistrate noted that the case was already scheduled for hearing on July 17, 2012. The court’s decisive legal basis relied on the standard for granting jurisdictional transfers, finding the statutory grounds for transferring the case to a different court were not met, thereby leaving the Focșani Court with competence to hear the matter.
