Hungary’s PM Orbán Presses Kúria To Rule On FX Mortgages
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán on Friday urged the Kúria, the supreme court, to rule quickly on the general principles of foreign currency mortgages. Speaking at a press conference, he said the cabinet would like the Kúria to waive its regular schedule and reach a decision due to the social importance of the issue.

This “firm request” by the government would be delivered to the Kúria by Justice Minister Tibor Navracsics.

If that did not achieve the desired result, then Orbán would himself meet the head of the court, he added.
