By means of art. 1, paragraph 380, of the 2023 budget law (No. 197 of 29 December 2022), the entry into force of the civil process reform – initially scheduled for 30 June 2023 – was brought forward by a substantial amendment of the transitional rules provided for in art. 35 of the Legislative Decree no. 149 of 10.10.2022.
In particular, the budget law has established that the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 149 of 10.10.2022 (that is, the “Reform”) “unless otherwise provided, have effect from 28 February 2023 and apply to proceedings established after that date. Previous provisions shall apply to proceedings pending on 28 February 2023“.
