The government has reportedly been sued for failing to organize the election for Bucharest mayor within the legal deadline of 90 days from the vacancy of the post, according to Antena3.ro.
The authors of the complaint are not disclosed, but the reformist party USR has previously expressed discontent with the delays.
The ruling coalition has put on ice the elections for Bucharest mayor as the parties seek to settle other key issues before addressing the Social Democrats' threat against an alliance between USR and PNL that would secure them the Bucharest mayor post.
"The law says that within 90 days after the vacancy of the position, elections must be organized (...).
In the past, Ludovic Orban sued the government led by Nicolae Ciucă for not organizing elections in 57 localities.
