Sample Notar Stagiar Admission Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Notar Stagiar Admission exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 32+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A third party fraudulently induces a sale. Under Civil Code Article 1215, when may the victim seek annulment on that basis?
A.Only if the third party was the seller's employee
B.Whenever a third party lies, regardless of the other contracting party's knowledge
C.Only after obtaining a criminal conviction
D.If the other contracting party knew or should have known of the fraud when the contract was concluded
Explanation: Article 1215 makes the other contracting party's actual or constructive knowledge relevant to annulment for third-party fraud. Independently of annulment, the perpetrator may be liable for the resulting damage.
2A contract does not expressly state its cause. What follows under Civil Code Article 1239?
A.It is necessarily absolutely void
B.It can be valid, and a valid cause is presumed until disproved
C.It is valid only if authenticated
D.The creditor must always prove its cause before demanding performance
Explanation: Article 1239 allows a valid contract even where its cause is not expressly stated. It also establishes a rebuttable presumption of a valid cause, rather than dispensing with cause as a validity requirement.
3Which proposed inalienability clause satisfies the duration and interest conditions in Civil Code Article 627(1)?
A.A perpetual prohibition justified by family convenience
B.A 60-year prohibition justified by a serious and legitimate interest
C.A 40-year prohibition from acquisition, justified by a serious and legitimate interest
D.A 49-year prohibition requiring no justification
Explanation: A contractual or testamentary prohibition may last at most 49 years and must have a serious and legitimate justification. The period runs from acquisition of the property; publicity and other effectiveness requirements must also be considered separately.
4A real right is entered in a person's favour in cartea funciară. Which statement correctly describes Civil Code Article 900?
A.The right is presumed to exist; contrary proof is restricted to the statutory cases and rectification proceedings
B.The entry is conclusive even if obtained fraudulently
C.The entry creates no evidential presumption
D.Any private letter automatically defeats the entry
Explanation: Article 900 presumes the existence of an entered real right and the nonexistence of an erased right. Contrary proof is confined to the Article 887 cases and an action for rectification, so the presumption is neither absent nor universally conclusive.
5A owes B 8,000 RON and B owes A 5,000 RON. Both money debts are certain, liquid and due, with no exclusion or waiver of legal set-off. What remains after compensation under Articles 1616–1617?
A.B owes A 3,000 RON
B.A owes B 8,000 RON and both debts remain unchanged
C.Both debts are entirely extinguished
D.A owes B 3,000 RON
Explanation: Reciprocal qualifying debts extinguish each other up to the smaller amount. Subtracting 5,000 from 8,000 leaves A owing B 3,000 RON.
6Under Civil Code Article 1610, how is an intention to novate treated?
A.It is presumed from every extension of a payment date
B.It must be unequivocal; novation is not presumed
C.It is presumed whenever a creditor sends a reminder
D.It follows automatically from a change of correspondence address
Explanation: Novation replaces an existing obligation with a new one under the statutory conditions. Article 1610 requires an unequivocal intention to novate, so a routine change to performance arrangements is insufficient by itself.
7A party unjustifiably refuses to complete a bilateral promise of sale. Assuming all other validity requirements are met, which statement follows from Civil Code Article 1669?
A.The promise always transfers ownership immediately
B.Only damages are available, even where a substitutive judgment is otherwise possible
C.The other party may seek a judgment replacing the contract; the action is subject to six months from when completion was due
D.The action always has the general three-year limitation period
Explanation: Article 1669 permits a judgment taking the place of the promised contract when its conditions are satisfied. It specifies a six-month limitation period from the date the contract should have been concluded, rather than automatic conveyance by the promise itself.
8An intestate leaves no spouse. One child survives; a second child predeceased, leaving two children who inherit by representation. There are no other relevant heirs or exclusions. How is the estate divided?
A.One-half to the surviving child and one-quarter to each grandchild
B.One-third to each of the three living descendants
C.The surviving child takes everything
D.One-quarter to the surviving child and three-eighths to each grandchild
Explanation: Representation divides the estate by branches under Civil Code Article 968. Each child's branch receives one-half, and the two grandchildren divide their parent's half equally.
9Under CPC Article 155, where is a natural person ordinarily cited?
A.Only at the court building
B.Only at a workplace selected by the claimant
C.At the person's domicile; if the person does not live there, at a known residence or elected location as provided by law
D.At any address in the same county
Explanation: Article 155 uses domicile as the ordinary starting point and provides for a known residence or elected place when the person does not live at that domicile. Other service rules must be considered where the ordinary address is unknown or a special situation applies.
10For a private-law legal person, what is the ordinary citation location under CPC Article 155(1)(3), subject to its branch and elected-address provisions?
A.Its registered seat, through its representative
B.Every shareholder's home
C.The claimant's chosen bank branch
D.The personal address of any employee
Explanation: The ordinary rule cites a private-law legal person through its representative at its principal seat. The provision also addresses relevant subordinate establishments and an elected seat, rather than treating shareholders or any employee as substitutes.
