Încheierea nr. 3920/2013 — Refusal of judicial transfer request for civil case due to unfounded legal merit

The High Court of Cassation and Justice, Civil Section I, dismissed the petition for transfer of venue (stramutare) filed by four applicants regarding Case No. 2141/279/2010, which remained pending at the Piatra Neamt Court with a hearing scheduled for October 21, 2013, effectively upholding the jurisdiction of the original court in a final, non-appealable decision. The dispute involved a procedural challenge to the allocation of a civil case, where the applicants sought to relocate the trial from the Piatra Neamt Court, but the Public Prosecutor's Office concluded that the request was unfounded. The court denied the motion based on the determination that the application lacked substantive legal merit, despite the administrative verification confirming that the petition was properly stamped and that the subject case was active in the courts' informatized records, leaving the initial venue arrangement in force.
