EXTINDEREA CADRULUI PROCESUAL PRIN INTERMEDIUL CERERII RECONVENȚIONALE ÎN NOUL COD DE PROCEDURÃ CIVILÃ

In the study hereunder, the authors analyse the wording of Article 209 para. (2) of the new Code of Civil Procedure (Law No. 134/2010, republished, enacted on February 15th, 2013), text according to which “if the claims put forth under the counterclaim also relate to persons other than the plaintiff, these will be summoned to Court as defendants”. The authors highlight that this text had no counterpart in the former Code of Civil Procedure (1865, reprinted in 1948) and emphasize positively the new regulation which extends thus the procedural framework.
