Guvernul trebuie să plătească restanțe salariale de un miliard euro magistraților. Penalitatea e 9.000.000€/zi • Newsweek România

The High Court of Cassation ruled that the government must pay €1 billion in salary arrears to magistrates, with penalties of €9 million per day for delays. This decision confirms a previous ruling by the Bucharest Court of Appeal, which mandated immediate payment. The arrears stem from a 2018 ruling that adjusted magistrate salaries by 25%. The government had sought to postpone payments until 2026 to allocate funds for pensioners, but the High Court rejected this request. The ruling is final, and any delay incurs significant penalties.
