Ukrainian judges are quitting in droves

200 the courts have less than 50% of the judges.

In two hundred Ukrainian courts remains less than half of the judges.

This was announced by the Chairman of the High qualification Commission of judges (vkks) Sergiy Koziakov.

According to him, from June to end of September last year from the judiciary resigned 1,6 thousand people, which in the history of Ukraine previously never had.

The head of CCG is called the reasons for the mass dismissal of judges: many are tired of the constant psychological pressure and accusations, others have resigned after the decision of the constitutional Court of Ukraine has returned the benefits and guarantees for judges to resign voluntarily, part – scared of the qualification evaluation, initiated the Vienna Convention, a large number of judges just did not want to disclose their property status.

According to Kosyakova, today, about the cleansing of the judiciary almost nobody talks about because the judiciary was reduced by a third.

“But with the modernization of the judiciary will be much more difficult. To prepare, the judges will take 22-24 months,” he concluded.
