This week the High Council of Justice dismissed five judges: - Two — retired; - Two — resigned at their own request; - One — in connection with being subject to disciplinary liability. At that, one of the judges who resigned at her own request had served in the position for less than two years. The other — only six. The judge dismissed for drinking on the job, Oksana Zvyagina, worked for a little more than 2 years. At the same time, since February 2026 she had been suspended from administering j...

Today the High Qualifications Commission of Judges (HQCJ) and the Expert Council were deciding on candidates for the Specialized Administrative Court of Appeal. Reminder: 10 judicial vacancies have been identified in this court. To begin work, at least half need to be appointed. 23 candidates reached the stage of joint interviews. 21 candidates appeared for the interview itself. Before that, the Expert Council determined that 19 out of 23 were not of integrity. For the rest, the votes of the Exp...

Legalization of property worth 26 million UAH: former head of the Commercial Cassation Court Bohdan Lviv has been notified of suspicion.

In addition, two other persons have been notified of suspicion in committing the crime — the judge’s former subordinate and her mother. During the period 2021–2022 years...

The Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court issued an important decision regarding the qualification assessment of judges for fitness to hold their position. By this decision, the GC SC determined at which stage a judge may challenge the High Qualification Commission of Judges’ decision finding them unfit for their position. When the HQCJ adopts a negative decision based on a judge’s assessment as to fitness for their position, it submits a proposal to the High Council of Justice for the judge’s dism...

The Office of the President published two decrees appointing judges. Earlier last week four more were published. It appears that judges are being appointed according to two criteria: 1. “Lost” decrees from 1-7 years are located, signed, and published. 2. New submissions from the HCJ are processed as quickly as possible, decrees are signed, and also published. This indicates a change in the Office of the President’s policy on judicial appointments after the Mudra-Mykitas recordings exposed storie...

The Plenum of the Supreme Court, which last Friday attempted to decide on the necessity of holding a new competition for the SC, failed to reach a decisive vote on that issue. The votes of the Supreme Court judges split almost in half. Later it turned out that the counting commission also does not know how to add up in a column. Therefore the voting results were annulled, and the issue of announcing the competition will be considered at the next plenum. Recall that the SC already has more than 5...

The President has appointed more 15 judges. The Office of the President released today Decrees dated 15 September 2026, numbers 911-914 and 920/2026–930/2026. Unlike the previous two rounds, when judges were appointed mostly to a single appellate court, yesterday’s appointments can be called a “mixed bag.” There are first-instance judges whose decrees had been “lost” for several years, appellate judges who received recommendations for appointment 3-6 months ago, and even a couple of judges whose...

We decided to look at the statistics for the number of court decisions issued by all judges of all active courts during the war that were entered into the Unified State Register of Court Decisions. For comparison, we took the first 8 months of the calendar year. Here is what we found. From 01 January 2026 through 31 August 2026, 6 152 305 court decisions of all types (verdict, resolution, judgment, writ of execution, ruling, separate ruling, dissenting opinion, additional decision) were entered...

Since our channel began operating, we have pointed out dozens of times the brutal delay in the President signing decrees on the appointment of judges. Each time we named names. First Smyrnov, then Mudra and Dubovyk. In other words, we publicly drew the attention of those personally responsible for this situation. We now have a proposal. In addition to the usual political statements, the HCMC can take one more simple step to encourage the staff of the Office of the President to review the HCMC’s...

HRC for August 2026 produced 30 documents regarding candidates for appellate courts: 20 negative conclusions 9 negative information items 1 annulment of a conclusion. That's half as many as the promised 60 candidates per month. Perhaps in this situation one should quote the interview with Oksana Syroid published this week, in which she said that the HRC long ago completed the task it was created for and therefore should be liquidated. “This instrument was intended for one and a half — at most tw...

Today the Expert Council that evaluates candidates for the Specialized District Administrative Court and the Specialized Administrative Appeals Court reviewed another 16 candidates for judgeships at these courts. All the candidates were deemed untrustworthy, and therefore their candidacies must be reviewed at joint sessions of the High Qualification Commission of Judges and the Ethics Council. Recall that last week the Expert Council reviewed another 22 candidates, of whom 19 were found untrustw...
