National Law Articles
The applicant brought an action against the defendant in the Ljubljana District Court, requesting that the defendant, a Bank, provide him with all identifying information about the recipients of transfers made against a particular transaction account held by the claimant's debtor. The District Court ruled that it had no material jurisdiction and remitted the case to the Administrative Court by referring to the Data Protection Act (ZVOP-1) and stating that the applicant acts as data subject and the defendant (bank) as a data controller. The claimant modified its claim. The Administrative Court dismissed the action. The dispute regarded the competence of the Administrative and District Court. The question was whether it is a private-law dispute between two civil persons, or a dispute which the administrative court is competent to decide as a specialized court. The Supreme Court found that the District Court of Ljubljana is competent to decide the case. As to what is important to us ZVOP is not applicable because both the plaintiff and the defendant are companies.
