Verdict for attacking TCC military personnel and probation
I read news about a man in Kharkiv who was found guilty by the court for throwing bricks at TCC military personnel, threatening them with a knife, and for this, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison but immediately released from serving the sentence with a 2-year probationary period. I'm interested to know if this means that if a person violates the law again during such a probationary period, they will immediately be sent to prison to serve the full term, and what other consequences this probationary period might have for ordinary life?
Attempt on the life of a People's Deputy
Do you think the motive of the suspect in the murder of Andriy Parubiy, which he named during the court hearing, will be taken into account when sentencing?
Criminal law
If the court simply copies the wording of the charges from the indictment in the verdict, does this automatically mean a violation of the Criminal Procedure Code? Should the court formulate the charges on its own based on the evidence examined?
Legal issues regarding the trial
If the court set out in the verdict the wording of the accusation that coincides with the wording of the indictment, does this automatically mean that the court violated the requirements of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine?
Can the court's decision be appealed?
If a person disagrees with a court decision, for example, regarding the sentence imposed on a loved one, does he or she have the right to appeal this decision and what are the deadlines for this by law?
Can an official be held liable for embezzlement?
In the case of embezzlement of funds from the Dovzhenko Film Studio, the Supreme Court of Justice of Ukraine sentenced two defendants. The former chief engineer of the film studio was sentenced to 7 years and 6 months in prison, and the former director of the company was sentenced to 8 years and 6 months in prison. Do you think the sentence in this case is fair?
Legal issues regarding fines
Can a person who has been sentenced to prison avoid serving the sentence by paying a fine, as in the case of Milorad Dodik?
