BUCHAREST (Reuters) -Romania's top court struck down on Monday a government plan to raise the retirement age for judges and prosecutors and cap their pensions, raising questions over the ruling coalition's stability as it tries to curb the EU's biggest budget deficit.
The Constitutional Court rejected, by five votes to four, proposals to raise retirement in the judiciary to 65 from around 50 at present and cap pensions to 70% of final salary.
