1The request dealing with jurisdiction, competence, joinder or separation of the proceedings, with the legal standing of the plaintiff and of the civil defendant, may not be presented later, if they have not been raised immediately after the legal standing of the parties, except when the possibility to raise them arises only during the court trial.
2Before the court trial is declared open, parties have the right to file requests for the declaration of invalidity of certain acts, or the non-usability of evidence.
3The court rules on the preliminary requests, by decision, immediately after hearing the parties. The court, where deemed necessary, may postpone the decision-making until the next hearing.
