Decizie crucială a Înaltei Curți pe salariile magistraților

The High Court of Cassation and Justice is expected to rule on the case against the Government regarding unpaid salary rights for magistrates, amounting to approximately 5 billion lei. The court's decision could compel the Executive to allocate funds through budget rectification. The case reached the appeal stage after the Bucharest Court of Appeal ruled in favor of the High Court's action, mandating the Government to pay the overdue salaries resulting from retroactive increases. Delays in payment could incur daily penalties and fines. The Government has requested constitutional review on whether courts can mandate budget allocations for salaries.
