The scheme worked simply and cynically:

– sought “clients” among men to be mobilized;
– fake claims and illegally formulated documents;
– made fictitious decisions on the dissolution of marriage, deprivation of the mother of parental rights and establishing the fact that the father is raising the child himself;
– They issued ready -made copies of “court” decisions that allowed to evade mobilization. ”

Details: The DBR says that at the end of 2024 they reported suspicion to one of the participants of the equipment – assistant to the judge.

During the further audit, several more court employees were involved in the scheme.

According to the investigation, they organized fictitious decisions on divorce and deprivation of mother’s parental rights for $ 3,000. This created reasons to recognize the man as the only guardian of the child under 18 years and thus release him from mobilization and grant the right to travel outside Ukraine.

The decisions were made without real lawsuits, payment of court fees and participation of compulsory bodies, including the children’s service.

The deputy head of the court apparatus illegally intervened in the automated system of workflow, registered non -existent cases and certified counterfeit decisions by the stamp.

V. O. The chairman of the court made unjust decisions, and the secretary of court sessions prepared fictitious documents and court summons, which were transferred to “clients”.

According to the DBR, more than 120 such decisions have been adopted from the beginning of a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation by the end of 2024. On their basis, more than 40 people crossed the border, more than 30 of them did not return. Among the plaintiffs were the employees of the court itself.

V. O. The chairman of the court, the assistant of the judge, the deputy head of the apparatus and the secretary of the court was notified of suspicion of:

• illegal crossing of persons across the state border (Part 3 of Article 332 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine),
• interference with the work of the judicial system (Part 2 of Article 376-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine),
• forgery of court decisions (Part 1 of Article 366 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine),
• obstruction of the Armed Forces (Part 1 of Article 114-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

The sanctions of these articles include up to 9 years in prison.

The actions of another judge of this court, who in private communication, denied the armed aggression of the Russian Federation, glorified the Russian military and approved the occupation of the Ukrainian territories. She was informed of suspicion of spreading materials that justify the aggression of the Russian Federation (Part 3 of Article 436-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine), which provides up to 8 years in prison.

On November 15, 2024, the Mariinsky District Court of Donetsk Oblast appealed to the Supreme Court with a submission to change territorial jurisdiction. The reason for the appeal was the approach of the front line to Kurakhov, where the institution was still working.

On January 21, 2025, the High Council of Justice made a decision to change the territorial jurisdiction of court cases of the Mariinsky District Court of Donetsk region.

The territorial jurisdiction was changed since February 3, 2025 by transferring it to the Apostolic District Court of Dnipropetrovsk region.
