Art. 26. Law no. 135/2010 on the Code of Criminal Procedure, published in the Official Gazette of Romania no. 486 of 15 July 2010, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended as follows: Article 391(1) is amended and shall read as follows

2. Article 391(2) is amended and shall read as follows

In exceptional situations, where, given the complexity of the case, deliberation and delivery cannot take place within the term provided for in paragraph 1, the court may postpone delivery by up to 30 days at a time, no more than twice.

After delivery, the judgment shall be communicated to the prosecutor, to the parties, to the injured person and, where the defendant is under arrest, to the administration of the place of detention, with a view to the exercise of the remedy at law. Where the defendant, the civil party or the injured person does not understand Romanian, a copy of the judgment shall be communicated to that person in a language he or she understands. Once the judgment has been drafted, it shall be communicated to them in its entirety.

Paragraph 2. The judgment may be delivered in open court, at the place where the hearings were held, by the presiding judge or by a judge who is a member of the panel, who shall read out the minute, also indicating the remedy that may be used against the judgment; or it may be delivered by the registry of the court making the judgment available to the parties.
