Încheierea nr. 4012/2013 — Transfer of civil proceedings: rejection based on scheduled hearing dates and lack of legal grounds

The High Court of Cassation and Justice dismissed the petition for the transfer (strămutare) of civil proceedings, thereby denying the relief sought by the petitioners and maintaining the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal Bacau. The dispute involved a procedural request by multiple parties to transfer a civil case from its currently assigned court to a different one, with the Public Prosecutor also recommending rejection on the grounds that the subject case had an upcoming hearing scheduled for October 9, 2013. The court’s decision relied on the procedural framework governing the transfer of cases, finding that the conditions for a legal change of venue were not met or that the request was untenable given the existing scheduling of the underlying civil lawsuit, and the order was final and not subject to appeal.
