Request for transfer of civil case jurisdiction (strămutare) due to scheduled hearing date

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition filed by the applicant for the transfer of jurisdiction of a civil case pending before the Focșani County Court, resulting in the retention of the original venue and leaving the matter without any further appeal. The dispute involved a procedural request to relocate the trial of a civil matter, with the hearing scheduled for September 3, 2012, but the request was rejected after the prosecutor and the court analyzed the grounds for such a transfer. The decision rests on the procedural norms governing the transfer of jurisdiction (strămutare) under the Romanian Code of Civil Procedure, establishing that the conditions for moving a case from its competent court to another were not met in this instance.
