Consilierea judiciară – creaţie „forţată” de sorginte europeană în materia ocrotirii majorului român
Judicial Counseling – A „Forced” Creation of European Origin in the Matter of Protecting Romanian Adults

Summary/Abstract: The study aims to present a concrete example where national law on the protection of adult individuals with mental health issues has been fundamentally influenced by European regulations. Specifically, it concerns the introduction of judicial counseling measures into Romanian legislation to align with the European Union standards on the protection of vulnerable adults. Throughout the paper we will analyze the impact of legislative amendments introduced by Law No. 140/2022, concerning certain protection measures for individuals with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities and amendments to other legal acts. Additionally, a review of European and national doctrine and jurisprudence will be conducted to observe whether the new protection system is genuinely capable of supporting those with partial mental impairments.
