Subject of the Dispute: Claim for damages caused by illegal actions of pre-trial investigation bodies, prosecutor’s office, in the amount of 2,040,000 UAH.
Main Arguments of the Court: The Supreme Court established that the plaintiff’s previous case No. 415/7800/18 in the Lysychansk City Court was not completed due to military actions and complete destruction of the court premises. The court considers that the plaintiff has the right to re-apply to the court, as the previous proceedings were lost before completion, and this should not limit the person’s right of access to justice.
Court Decision: Cancel previous court decisions and refer the case to the local court to resolve the issue of opening proceedings.
