What a nightmare. Hopefully common sense will prevail at some point.

Man says he's alive. Judge says he's not.

"I am officially dead, although I'm alive,"

Bârlad and Vaslui aren't very far from Transylvania, after all...

I wonder it all began because his "widow" wanted to collect on an insurance policy or inherit his assets.

An interesting thought occurs to me: Can a man who is dead be convicted of a crime? Suppose he shot the judge who declared him dead.
Likely he would just be prosecuted as John Doe.

Yup. This is pure bureaucratic shit and any judge that makes a ruling like this is an idiot and needs to step down from the bench.

So he's a living dead guy from Romania...why does that sound familar? Jokes aside that is very sad and I hope the situation gets resolved soon.
