Case: The client was removed from military registration through the court
Client: individual
Request from the client: to declare the actions of the territorial recruitment center unlawful and to oblige it to enter information about the client’s exclusion from military registration into the register
Responsible lawyer: Lobunko Michael
Circumstances of the case:
The company “Prikhodko&Partners” was contacted by a client who was illegally registered for military service, despite the fact that since January 1, 2011, he had been excluded from military service due to reaching the age limit for being in the reserve, which was confirmed by the corresponding entry in the military ID card.
The client learned about the problem through the “Reserve+” mobile application – it turned out that he was registered with the Primorsky district territorial center for recruiting and social support of the city of Odessa, and was also under administrative investigation for violating the rules of military registration.
During the initial consultation, our military law lawyer analyzed in detail:
- The client’s military ID card with the corresponding record of exclusion from the register;
- Extract from the Electronic cabinet of a conscript, military conscript, reservist;
- Correspondence with the Primorsky DTCC and JV and the Odessa Regional TCC and JV;
- Norms of the Law of Ukraine “On military duty and military service” and the Law “On the unified state register of conscripts, military conscripts and reservists”.
As a result, a strategy for further actions was developed and an Agreement on the provision of legal assistance was signed.
Before applying to the court, Mykhailo Lobunko sent an application to the Primorsky DTCC and JV with a request to enter information about the client’s exclusion from the registration into the Unified state register of conscripts, military enlisted persons and reservists. The recruiting center refused, demanding a personal appearance and citing the lack of grounds for an in absentia hearing. The complaint to the Odessa Regional TCC and JV also yielded no results.
In this regard, the lawyer prepared a statement of claim to the Odessa district administrative court with a request to recognize the defendant’s actions as unlawful and oblige him to enter the relevant information into the register.
Result:
As a result, by the decision of the Odessa district administrative court of April 13, 2026 in case № 420/4979/26, the claim was fully satisfied:
- actions of the Primorsky DTCC and the JV were recognized as unlawful;
- the recruitment center was obliged to enter information about the client’s exclusion from military registration into the Unified state register;
- a court fee of UAH 1,331.20 was collected in favor of the client.
