ARTICLE 18764
Postponement of execution
(1) The court may postpone the execution of a transmitted confiscation order:
a) if, in the case of a confiscation order concerning and amount of money, it considers
that there is a risk that the total value derived from its execution may exceed the amount specifi-
ed in the confiscation order because of simultaneous execution of the confiscation order in more
than one Member State;
b) in the cases of legal remedies referred to in Art. 18768;
c) where the execution of the confiscation order might damage an ongoing criminal
investigation or proceedings, until such time as it deems reasonable;
d) where the property is already the subject of confiscation proceedings in Romania.
(2) The court shall, for the duration of the postponement, take all the measures it would take
in a similar domestic case to prevent the property from no longer being available for the purpose
of execution of the confiscation order.
(3) In the case of postponement pursuant to para. (1) a), the court shall inform the competent
authority of the issuing State thereof immediately by any means capable of producing a written
record.
(4) In the cases referred to in para. (1) b) and c), a report on the postponement, including the
grounds for the postponement and, if possible, the expected duration of the postponement, shall
be made forthwith by the court to the competent authority of the issuing State.
