damage claims

Romanian businessman Costica Constanda on Wednesday won a civil trial started against the Bucharest city hall regarding a land swap contract, and the mayoralty will pay the businessman damage claims amounting to a record EUR165 million.

Romania’s insurers said Tuesday insurance regulator CSA’s decision stating insurers must pay civil liability car insurance (RCA) damage claims before cars are repaired and not after they are taken out of repair shops, will impact prices, as well as the quality of services provided by repair shops.

Four cars were damaged Wednesday night by a dislocated sewer lid in the underground passageway opened earlier in the day in Bascov, in Romania’s southern county of Arges.
