(presence of circumstances indicating a probable violation by the pursuer of the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention of Corruption"):
The information is being clarified.
In 2018, the judges of the Higher Economic Court who worked under the leadership of Viktor Tatkov, who was suspected of illegal interference in the automated case distribution system and wanted by the Prosecutor General's Office, entered the competition for the new Supreme Court.
"Schem" journalists found a decision from 2013, in which one of the parties to the process draws the attention of the then-presiding judge Yevsikov to the violation that the composition of judges of the appellate instance was not determined according to the rule - that is, with the help of a computer system. At that time, Yevsikov did not see this as a violation, referring to the decision of the judges at the meeting, which allowed bypassing the automatic distribution of cases.
The ex-judge himself, when asked by journalists if he knew that there was a system to bypass the automated distribution of cases in the High Commercial Court during the time of President Yanukovych, answered briefly: "There were no complaints from lawyers. (…) Understand, I also have a reputation."
In 2019, the Public Integrity Council published an opinion on the activities of the judge. He used family connections to make a career. In addition, the members of the State Administrative Court had questions about the judge's wealth. Members of the Council decided that Yevsikov does not meet the criteria of a judge who can work in the Supreme Court.
