Judge of the Ovidiopol District Court of Odessa region, Volodymyr Kochko received a severe reprimand and was deprived of surcharges for a salary for three months . The decision was made by the High Council of Justice after considering the complaint of the police against its validity during the trial.
About it writes Abslfation Leaks.
The GRP considered two complaints against the judge, which was filed with the Odessa police department. Both complaints relate to one case that was examined by Judge Vladimir Khoch and where one of the parties was management.
The judge had admitted numerous gross violations during the case. In particular, the police were not informed of the case and further the decision, although the case was added to the case that the management allegedly received a notification of trial.
The complaint also referred to the wrongfulness of the judge's decision. The case concerned the disposal of vehicles that Vladimir Kochko allowed as a result of consideration. However, this transport was material evidence in criminal proceedings, and its disposal was impeded by police in their investigation.
Judge Kochko violated the requirements for indicating in the court decision the motives of rejection or acceptance of the arguments of the parties. In fact, there were circumstances where the judge accepted all the applicant's arguments without even checking them and not in need of evidence.
This is not the first time the judge of Kokoch is deprived of surcharges. In 2021, the GRP made him a similar reprimand to the moon. The complaint concerned that the judge bit the police. So, in 2018, the patrolmen stopped the car at the wheel of which the judge's wife was, and he was sitting nearby. The driver was intoxicated. So the patrolmen began to make an administrative protocol, after which the judge Kochko began to swear on them and bit them.
