Înalta Curte dă joi testul sincerității

The High Court of Cassation and Justice is expected to deliver a final ruling on the government's allocation of 5.2 billion lei for judges' unpaid salaries. The case, initiated at the Bucharest Court of Appeal, previously ruled in favor of the High Court. The government has requested the court to refer a preliminary question to the Court of Justice of the European Union regarding the independence of judges and budget allocation procedures. Legal experts suggest that the court is likely obligated to refer the question, as it pertains directly to the case at hand. The High Court's upcoming decision will indicate its commitment to EU jurisprudence.
