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 a witness fails to appear in court without good reason, will he be fined?
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?
If you were summoned to court as a witness, victim, or suspect, but you failed to appear without good reason, what penalty can be imposed on you under the new law?
