#I will appear

Can a trial be held without a plaintiff and a defendant?

Can officials be held liable for failure to appear in court?

The Verkhovna Rada recently passed a law that allows for fines of up to UAH 12,000 for failure to appear in court. I am curious whether this law will apply to all categories of citizens or only to certain ones, for example, witnesses or experts in court proceedings?

What liability is provided for failure to appear on a summons?

Will the liability for failure to appear in court change?

I want to know whether there will be any changes in liability for failure to appear in court after the adoption of a new law by the Verkhovna Rada, which provides for a fine of up to 12 thousand hryvnias?

If the defendant did not appear in court, will there be a court hearing?
