I read that New Year's trees are officially sold at forestries and special markets, and you can even pre-order them. But what if I cut down a Christmas tree in the forest myself for the holidays? Is this generally legal, or could I face a fine or something more serious for it?
How is the transparency and legality of the competition for the positions of judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine ensured? Will there be challenges to candidacies and what are the evaluation criteria?
What are the requirements for the form and content of the contract in order for it to be legally binding?
I saw news that the courts confirmed the legality of creating the National Military Memorial Cemetery, although there were lawsuits and claims from public organizations. I am interested, can residents of nearby villages or other citizens still somehow appeal this decision or influence the construction of this cemetery if they believe their rights are violated? And is it generally possible to stop construction after such court decisions?
I read that the court is considering appointing a guardian for a person with a mental disorder, and a situation arose where the head of the hospital department where the patient is currently located is intended to be appointed as the guardian. However, I heard that relatives should be given preference, and the patient himself was against it. Is it legal to appoint a medical professional from the hospital where the person is being treated as their official guardian if this person has close relatives? Doesn't this create a conflict of interest or a violation of such a person's rights?
I'm a bit confused because everywhere it's written that summons are often served by TCCs nowadays, but according to deputies and the military ombudsman, this is not their responsibility at all, and by law, local administrations or law enforcement should be doing it. So who, according to the law, should actually distribute summons for mobilization, and is it even legal if I am given one by TCC employees on the street?
I read that the Supreme Court ruled that if I was not present during the conduct of covert investigative actions, it does not violate criminal procedural law. But if evidence was obtained precisely when I was not present, can this evidence still be used against me in court? I am interested in whether this is truly legal, and do I have any protection in such a situation?
I read that a new law on lobbying has recently come into effect in Ukraine, and it spells out various methods that are considered legal, but the list of these methods is not exhaustive. That is, you can use other methods that are not prohibited by law. But how do I understand which action will still be legal, and which may already create a corruption risk or violate the rules? Are there any simple criteria to follow in order not to break the law when lobbying?
I recently saw information that a man in Poltava was convicted for posting the location of TCC servicemen in a chat room. I am posting information on social media about the TCC's actions in my city. Will this be considered obstruction of the lawful activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine?
Since the beginning of the year, 91 companies have excluded Russian owners from their structures, despite the legal prohibition. How can I be sure that such actions will not be recognized as illegal? Can companies continue to operate without consequences?
