Pepeliaev Group advises that the Russian Supreme Court has introduced restrictions within the framework of preventing the spread of the coronavirus infection in Russia.
The Praesidium’s Resolution which significantly restricts of the work of Russian Courts has been published on the website of the Russian Supreme Court. In particular from 19 March until 10 April 2020 the following restrictions will be in force:
Taking into account the restrictions introduced in the work of courts it should be expected that court hearings scheduled within the period from 19 March until 10 April 2020 will be postponed, and the total timeframe for the consideration of cases will be increased.
We recommend monitoring hearings and contacting court staff in order to clarify the situation (confirm the fact that a hearing has been postponed and to specify the new date of the hearing).
There is a possibility that court summonses concerning new dates of hearings will be delivered with a delay. In this regard we recommend tracking the appointment schedule for court hearings on the website of the relevant court and not missing notifications in text messages which the court might send to the representatives of the parties with their consent.
