Judge “Karlsson” Ihnatov: how to escape responsibility for ruined lives through sanatorium stays and sick leave
The disciplinary case against the trio of judges from the Kyiv Court of Appeal (Balatska, Horb, and Ihnatov) is long since no longer about procedural nuances. It’s about an outright, cynical, and systematic attempt to avoid punishment.
While an ordinary citizen sat unjustly in pretrial detention for a year and a half because of their “forgetfulness,” Judge Ihnatov switched to maximum self-preservation mode. His sudden “illness” peculiarly worsens every time trouble is brewing.
The chronology of the judges’ “sufferings” looks simply mocking:
📌At first there was an urgent need to rest — as many as 5 weeks at a sanatorium at the beginning of August.

☝️Immediately after the resort comes September — and a new misfortune: a sudden sick leave. Apparently, the body couldn’t bear the thought that it might have to answer for 17 months of an unissued ruling.
🤕This “Karlsson syndrome” is a classic illness of Ukrainian judges. They feel perfectly healthy when deciding other people’s fates, but instantly become “the most ill people in the world” as soon as the High Council of Justice calls them in.
Final chord: recusal as a last refuge
When resorts and doctors’ notes ran out, heavy artillery was brought in — procedural spam. Ihnatov filed a recusal against a member of the HCJ. The reason is fantastic: the member allegedly doesn’t listen to Hryhorii Usyk, who, they say, is doing everything he can to save his friends.
❓But the most interesting thing here is the HCJ’s own reaction. According to established practice, filing a recusal blocks any further action until that recusal is considered. So why are hearings simply being postponed again while the recusal remains unresolved? Do the rules of the game differ for ordinary judges and for HCJ members?
🤡Ihnatov’s scheme is obvious — delay as much as possible, wait out the storm, and hope that the circle of mutual protection works again. The only question is whether the HCJ will allow this circus to continue to the end.
👀We keep watching the hands and the “sick leaves” further…
