The request was submitted to the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine to obtain an official clarification on the following issue:
whether a person who has scheduled court hearings and is an official participant in a court proceeding — in particular, as a defendant, victim, witness, claimant, or respondent — can be subject to mobilization.
The purpose of the request is to clarify whether the current legislation of Ukraine provides for a deferral from mobilization or other legal guarantees for individuals whose participation in court proceedings is mandatory, and to determine which legal acts regulate this matter
